I thought it was the best book ever... I liked it as much as i liked The Half Blood Prince which was a really good book.

I cant believe the author started writing the book when he was 15 years of age. Now hes 20 i think and hes working on the third book of the trilogy.

First book -> Eragon
Second book -> Eldest
Third book -> Rumored to be called Empire

Its an awesome book, i recommend it, i cant wait to get the 2nd book, but it still didnt get to my country.

If u like harry potter/ fantasy/ Lord of the Rings then this book is for you! Lots of magic and dragons and things cool book!

Im rereading the book again because its so good o.o

Care to post some info about it? Sounds interesting but a summary would be good obviously dont tell us what happens... just the general info

Here's a great big fantasy that you can pull over your head like a comfy old sweater and disappear into for a whole weekend. Christopher Paolini began Eragon when he was just 15, and the book shows the influence of Tolkien, of course, but also Terry Brooks, Anne McCaffrey, and perhaps even Wagner in its traditional quest structure and the generally agreed-upon nature of dwarves, elves, dragons, and heroic warfare with magic swords.
Eragon, a young farm boy, finds a marvelous blue stone in a mystical mountain place. Before he can trade it for food to get his family through the hard winter, it hatches a beautiful sapphire-blue dragon, a race thought to be extinct. Eragon bonds with the dragon, and when his family is killed by the marauding Ra'zac, he discovers that he is the last of the Dragon Riders, fated to play a decisive part in the coming war between the human but hidden Varden, dwarves, elves, the diabolical Shades and their neanderthal Urgalls, all pitted against and allied with each other and the evil King Galbatorix. Eragon and his dragon Saphira set out to find their role, growing in magic power and understanding of the complex political situation as they endure perilous travels and sudden battles, dire wounds, capture and escape.
