What readers think of Eragon, plus links to write your own review.

Honestly, Eragon is the BEST fantasy books I have read in my whole life! Way to go Paolini. If I was fifteen i could not write like Christopher did. He has an imagination!! Unlike, some people who have rated the book 1. I love how he makes his own language and people. I read the book in 5 days. I could not put it down. I recommend this book to EVERYONE, WHO ACTUALLY HAS AN IMAGINATION!! UNLIKE THE PEOPLE WHO HATE ERAGON! READ IT NOW!!!

I loved the book though i must agree that it did seem a little bit, for lack of a better word copied. Even worse was the fact that the movie had no actual plotline. However the concept is good as is the descriptions as my heart reached out to each character in turn.

Well, it was a real good book, but I ask if it is slightly a knock-off of a mixture of the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings books...the magic, dragons...typical fantasy stuff but a little too much like those two books...the main character, Eragon, is a bit like Harry Potter...orphaned, has certain qualities that set him apart from all the others, has magical abilities...sound familiar? To all my readers, sorry about all the dot dot dots(...). It also had some Lord of the Ring type things in it...ok not gonna type them all. Overall, it was excellent, really it was, but it kinda is a typical fantasy story using 2 of the original 7 plots of the world-orphan does amazing things, and rescues the girl(who, in this book, is Ayra) from a terrible death...Anyways, good book, read it, but I warned ya it was kinda knock-off-ish. No offense to Christopher Paolini

This is one of the best fantasy novels I've read before next to lotr. Its about a boy named Eragon who finds a dragon egg and flees the empire in hope to join with a group of rebels called the varden. I rate this book 5 because YOU WILL NOT PUT IT DOWN I recommend this for 13+.

i think that the book is brilliant. for someone as young as Chris he has an incredible knowledge of vocab. The book enwinds and drags you in i could not put it down.I would love to know who he based Eragon on he sounds brave and fabulous.just like the story.

These are the best books I have ever read and they are so addicting!!! This book has every emotion in one book!!! I don't really read a lot but this is by far the most amazing book I have ever read!!! I suggest you get the book and don't stop because of it describing the landscape for a few pages just get through it and then something amazing will happen!!!

I've read book one Eragon and at first it's was so boring and slow so i put it down thinking it was a awefull book, but then one day about a month and a half later i got bored and i picked it back up. I got the the chapter when Saphira hatched from her egg and that's what hoked me. Then book was sad, funny, and exciting. by the end of this book i had a HUGE crush on Eragon.

Eldest i am still reading but im almost done with it. So far in this book i'm fallen more love with Eragon and seen how my friends say i'm so much like Arya the elf (see at the bottom)
and Saphira has growen so much in the book she does seem much older then Eragon.

THESE BOOK ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!


The female character's in both books were awesome and as i read the more i loved about it. My one friend Jake h. was the one to get me hoked one it. Then I got my one friend courtney hoked one the books. When she finished the first book she said to me it was awesome and she even said i reminded her or the elf Arya. Chris PLEASE keep writing books about Eragon, Saphira, and Arya. These are amazing and if you're writing you brought them to life. MAKE a MOVIE on this.

I'm 24, I read Eragon and Eldest, and Oh my God! these books are so addictive!... can't wait to read the 3rd one. I really loved the stength of the famale characters (Arya, Saphira, Nasuada) and fell in love with the male charecters at once! (specially with Murtagh) There were nights I didn't sleep, 'cause I couldn't stop reading... it's a great story.

I wanna watch the movie now! or at least the teaser-trailer. By the way loved Ed Speleers as Eragon, Jeremy Irons is going to be the best Brom and Garret Hedlund is such a babe.... my Murtagh, just as I've imagined he would be.
