This book was amazing. It was just as good as the first if not better. I loved the scenes where Eragon trained. The ending was perfect and I'm eager to read Brisingr. I think Christopher Paolini is now my favorite author of all time. Not just because of his writing, but because he started writing Eragon at such a young age.

That's what I'm doing too. I'm writing my own stories now so I don't have to have too much writer's block when I'm published. I'm writing all of my story ideas when they come

Hear that sound? It's Star wars, Lord of the Rings, Wheel of Time, Dune, and many many other wonderfully told fantasy novels shouting for their stories back. Sorry but seriously, if I could give this book negative stars I would. Most authors are clearly influenced by other writers and that shows in their writing but this is a recycled mess of better stories. Sorry to say but terrible. ...more
