Summary: My favorite book besides Harry Potter
Review: Ok you can all me a Harry Potter freak. But I have to say this book comes pretty close to Harry Potter. The plot, the characters, the dragons, the magic, and any other mythical aspects make this book one of the best. Christopher Poalini is a very talanted writer and can relate to many other of my favorite authors such as J.K.Rowling, Anne McCaffrey, and Susan Fletcher.
If you are a fantasy and a Harry potter fan you will love this book!

Summary: Full of highs and lows
Review: I received this book as a Christmas gift, and although I'm normally attracted to such fantastical sounding novels, Eragon sat under my tree for a while after the 25th. When I finally resorted to the book after boredom overtook me, I wasn't impressed. Halfway through I was still tempted to drop it. It didn't keep my interest for its lack of originality, and the reading level wasn't what I had expected. For younger/lower-level readers, this would probably make a lovely gift; however, I saw too many links to other writers and not enough of what I enjoy in a decent fantasy novel.

Summary: "wow"
Review: The only word for this book is "wow". I just finished reading it and it is one of the greatest books i have ever read. dont listen to any of the crap the critics may give. It is a book for all ages. I would even dare to place it in the ranks of The Lord Of The Rings and the Harry Potter series. I cant not wait until the next book in the trilogy comes out!

Summary: Couldn't put the book down!!!
Review: A few days ago, a friend recommended this book to me. She said it was good and worth a read. So, I picked the book up and began a great journey. This book was similar to "middle earth" and other fantasy sagas, but it wasn't exact. I was enthralled by the imagry of the book and the characters. The second book better come out really soon, because having to put this story off until it comes out is excruciating to me. Same as with the Harry Potter series, I don't want to have to wait three to four years before the next book comes out. When reading those books, I couldn't help but notice the similarities of Harry Potter to The worst witch. Although, I enjoyed Harry Potter much more and feel it is much much better than The worst witch.
Christopher Paolini better put the second book out soon, because my reading glasses are itching to be put on.

Summary: A GREAT book!
Review: I think this book was an EXTREMELY good. It was such a good book that I wished that I could read it when I was in bed without getting in to trouble. When they were doing the big battle outside of Farthen Dur,I was flipping pages like a boat motor, and when my father told me it was time to go to bed, it took five minutes of him yelling to get me to get unoblivious to everthing around me. When I got to the end of the book, though, i was very dissapionted because it said 'END OF BOOK ONE OF THE INHERITANCE TRILOGY'. He's still working on the next book!!

Summary: A good book- but not at all refreshing!
Review: For a 15 year old writer, I am impressed by his writing abilities, but not so impressed with the story he chose to write about. When writing a book you can't just throw in "new revaltions". You have to put in something "new". Just plain new. Eragon, is NOT an example of "new". It is combined with many other books including The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Wars, The Chronicles of Narnia... need I go on? So, if your looking for a book different and refreshing, this is not the one. However, if you're looking for a good fantasy book, this is recomended.

Summary: A fabulous fantasy
Review: I recieved this book for Christmas this year, and ignored it for several days until the boredom of winter break overcame me. I could hardly put this book down at night. Eragorn and Saphira's adventures with Brom and Murthag captivate your soul better than any many of the fantasies out there. Think of it as simmilar to the Lord of the Rings, except written in a simpler language. When reading LOTR you get caught up in the unknown words, and characters and names of places you can spend hours on one page, with Eragorn however, its a perfect mix of several characters, interesting names and places and also excitement. Eragon is a combination of: The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and Star Wars in some of the events that occur, mainly simmilarities to a "Yoda-like"
character. Its an amazing book, and I can not wait for the second of the trilogy to be released! A MUST read!!! :-)

Summary: Awesome
Review: This is a very good book. Yes it has a lack of originality, but I still think it has a good plot and the same feel of all other good fantasty books. I have not read many fantasy books, but I very much enjoyed this book. It was exciting and very interesting I recommend reading this book.

Summary: Finally!
Review: It's been awhile since i read a book this good. I read some ok ones, but this is an awsome one! I love how you get warped into the story when you start reading it, and i want to say, that there isn't another book i have seen that combines dragons and magic so well. But i am only 8, and i still have a lot more time to read! All in all, this was a great book. I can't wait for the next one!
