Eragon January 28, 2008 Amy J. James (Sandwich, Kent, UK) 2-3 years ago I was browsing the selves in the public library looking for some chunky fantasy to kill my spare time on. I didn't think for one minute that I was checking out something that would keep me so on the edge of my seat and have me practically obsessed with checking for release dates of Eldest and now Brisingr. The trilogy has been amazingly un-put-downable so far and I class it as totally unmissable for any fantasy/dragon/adventure/quest enthusiast out there. Read this!!!
Just a question... November 9, 2007 B. Jensseter (Norway) Why on EARTH is this version of the book so expensive? I know one of them is signed by the author and it costs 1.700 (Which is hugely overpriced)But why does the other ones cost so much? Oh, right... The book was great!
Great October 10, 2007 P. Watson (Edinburgh) If you enjoy dragons, fanatasy and adventure then you NEED to read this book. It's very gripping; a real page turner. The characters are fanatastic, and Eragon is a great hero. Read the book before you watch the film; the book's way better, and seeing the film might spoil the wonderful experience that you get from reading the book. If you liked books like The Saga of Darren Shan, Wolf Brother, Percy Jackson or The Bartimaus Trilogy, then you must read this.
Get over it! May 8, 2007 Gibbo 0 out of 5 found this review helpful
Yes i acknowledge that Eragon contains bits and pieces from other stories, but the fact that you are sad enough to READ a star wars book is just unimaginable. I tried to read a star wars book once, i read one page and lost what was happening! That's how confusing it is, if you like fantasy read this book, but if your sad enough to read a star wars book and enjoy it then don't even bother to try and read it and then write a review about it! *Sigh* Eragon is a compelling book and grips you from the start if you're impatient then you will struggle because there is a lot of travelling. There are flaws within the book but nonetheless they make no actual difference to the story. Unless you're a sad act idiot who enjoys star wars books! Well i think i've taken out my rage on the keyboard!
great story, not so great writing January 9, 2007 HChaker (England) 2 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is definitely not better then the Harry Potter series. You cannot compare the writing. JK Rowling is by far the more superior writer. But, I cannot say that both Eragon and Eldest are not fantastic stories. Paolini is young and his writing shows it. Much of Eragon seems to have been written by a high school student which is not surprising, as he was just 15 when he began the story. What is surprising is that he didn't get a better editor. A good editor could have made the difference -- this could have been great literature and not just a great story. Paolini could be a Tolkein or Rowling in the making - but only if he gets some good tutelage and listens. I would love to see his writing mature ... if it caught up with his imagination, he would indeed be phenomenal!
