For all of u people out there that say he copied the creatures in the book. it's kinda hard to make up new creatures. i mean do any of u even know who created the elves or dwarfs? Beacuse then u could say the tons of authors copied the first one to use them. geeze. Think peeps

I have read tons and tons of books. I am a huge fantacy reader. i have read through my school library and the city library. This book is one of the best books I have ever read. I liked the book because it was there was always something going on. It was the type of book you never want to put down and could read through the night. If you liked the Harry Potter books or the LOTR books you will deffinatly like Eragon. I can't wait until Eldest, Empire, and Eragon the movie comes out.
