Fifteen-year-old Eragon believes that he is merely a poor farm boy—until his destiny as a Dragon Rider is revealed.

Now his choices could save—or destroy—the Empire.

LOVE this series!! Every single book was awesome, especially considering they were written by a teenager, crazy!!

[Jeshu]

I hated this book, my eyes had a lot of bleeding :(
This is everything I'm going to say about it hahaha

I read the book about 6 years ago. I have only very faint memories of it now, I have to admit, but I get a strong feeling of boredom when I think of it.

I finished this one, attempted Eldest, got bored and failed, and have never picked up the series again.

I think I read this years ago but never continued with the series- there must have been a reason :0

I havent read it. I watched it. All i know is my sister read them all. So.. she must of liked them lol

[Jeshu]

My ex sister-in-law was reading it this month (coincidence) and she was loving it. She didn't understood why I hated it so much ehehehe

[Rea, Ghost]

Lol. :p Lots of people seem to like it, though. We're just a bunch of cynics!! I'll never give in to the temptation to read any more of the series, though.

[Jeshu]

Well, we have to look at our CV... we hated Vampire Academy and City of Bones, which apparently everyone loves XD

[Tara-Jayne (♥ I Read, I Love ♥) , The Great & Mighty Mod! :P]

:/ city if bones was amazing.. and im reading vampire academy series now,,, lol

Can't wait for the movie for city of bones

((sorry went off topic))

[Rea, Ghost]

Yes but Tara, you're weird. :p This has already been established.

I didn't even manage to get beyond the first couple of chapters of City of Bones it was so bad. Vampire Academy was ok but only a couple of characters (Christian!) were really good.

[Jeshu]

Yes!!1 Christian!!! He was the best XD

I loved this book but have yet to read the next one. I'm finishing up all the other books I've sitting on my shelf before I start the next one. I also loved City of Bones & the rest of that series & the following series after that. Eragon made me want a dragon ha ha

This book was alright. I read it awhile ago, and haven't moved on to the second one yet. Maybe this winter I can tackle it. :)
