Eragon

O.....K......
wateve. I just think it's cool. It's been my goal, 2, like, write the great American Novel while I'm still a teenager, and as long as there r kids out there writing and doing pretty darn good, I'm happy. 😊

Getting closer to the ending 🙂

It would be easier if I did not have two other books I'm reading, and also other things I have to do. *laughs*

Well as soon as you fininsh come back on and we can talk freely about the book without spoilers.

this is off topic but did you realise with the word dragon and change the first letter one forward (a-b) dragon=eragon

i was wondering if anyone else noticed 🙂

*shrugs* I 4get, I think I did realize. and we're not really off topic, we're still disscussing Eragon. 😛

what exactly is gonna happen in Eldest? I mean, Arya is gonna take Eragon and Saphira, probably Murtaugh 2, 2 the Elves, 2 train him. but r thay gonna, like, fly their and spend the most time in the book w/ the elves, or spend most of the time traveling, 'cuz they still need time in the third book 2 kill the evil king dude.

ow, my brain hurts.

Most likely but Roran is being thrown in the story I know. I do not know what will happen but something along the lines of his betrayal to Eragon. Did you ever look at the special edition of Eragon. It has the first few chapters of Eldest.

ooooooo i cant wait i want it for my birthday but im getting a mp3 player instead

but at that point i didnt know when it was coming out so an mp3 player or money rip to my dreams

I read some of the extra stuff, but mine isn't special addition, I just realized. I had 2 borrow my friend's book. as far as I got, Eragon is still hurt, and he's looking over the battle field.

nope i have never noticed that changing the e to a d will make dragon. So how long is Eldest going to be...anyone know?

Just finished it today 🙂

well what did you think of it out of ten i give it a 9 1/2

i took off half a star as the saphiras picture on the front looks alot better than the dragons i draw disgust

I'd go for somewhere in the 4/5 range. Paolini's better than anyone I can think of at age 15... but 15 he remains. And you can see it, if you really look at it. The story does bear huge similarities to Star Wars though. There's even more than the ones Noah posted...

Eragon's a fair read. I swear though, I get to hate the "unlikely hero who gets confronted with new powers and by a random stroke of luck comes out on top" stories. Use your own skills, dammit.

And to whoever said it, words don't make a story. They help, but an amazing plot and great overall telling of a story with the vocabulary of an 8th grader would not bother me in the least. Great description and such techniques cover up shoddy vocabulary very well.

Other than that, I'll probly read Eldest... Just to see if Lu- imean Eragon- gets his hand cut off.

All in all, Eragon's not really unbearable, but it's no Wheel of Time. Or Sword of Truth. Or three quarters of the Forgotten Realms books out there. Ooh, and Dragonriders of Pern was quite good too. Damn... Eragon's pretty low on my fantasy list... READ GOOD BOOKS!

yeah but ive never seen starwars and i only read eragon as my mum forced me too
starwars sniper

i mean
sniper starwars

so i wouldnt know if they were similar

U have never cn Star Wars??? jawdrop what, do u live in a cave????

I'd give it a 8/10. It's well written.

Can't wait to read the next book 🙂
