Default Eragon

Has anyone read the Inheritance series, Eragon or Eldest, it is about how a small farmboy found a dragongirl and it hatched later turning him into a dragon rider. No??Anyone?

Anyway they are coming out with a movie of it somwhere around the summer.

I read the book....and I also want to see the movie to see if they can make the story as close as the book. Or maybe it'll be another HP's film...because the Eragon & Eldest are both pretty thick books, so they might cut a lot of story from the book

[Eragon to the far left, Brom in the middle, and Arya the elf to the right]



I read Eragon but I found a lot of it was quite dull. The second book was even worst...I just wanted to flush it down the toilet!

That was a pretty good book. Eragon's cousin Rowan was pretty boring. In the second book, I was so tired of reading about him and Katrina that i eventually skipped entire chapters just to get on with it. Eragon looks cute. Who's the girl that plays Arya?

Yeah I agree...the second book was borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring! I hated Roran or Katrina chapters but there were so much of them. I also disliked Eragon parts because most of it was either of him dreaming or Arya or of him training with that old elf.

I actually like the second book because come on Rowan was able to beat up soldiers and the Ra'zac on his own with a freaking hammer. And the book got pretty interesting in the end at the battle of no man's land.

True the book did get boring at certain parts but it is still pretty good I just want to say how it turns out in the last book, Empire.

Yeah...first half of Eldest was pretty boring. It took long time for me to read it...but towards the end, it was getting better & it was funnier than the 1st book too.....and CP (the author) tried to twist the story a bit...unfortunately, I guessed most of it....except 1 twist.

I can't believe a kid well actually, a teenager wrote these books and they're actually popular enough to be made into a movie already?

Shoot,If I knew this was possible, I should of gone out and published some books back in high school and try my luck.

Yeah....pretty impressive for a tennager like him to write something like these books...eventough a lot of people said he kinda copied LOTR style.

I don't care....as long as it's a good book and not too boring, then I'll read it.

SS I think his parents are publishers and that's why he could publish these books that easily...I don't think teens are allowed to publish books (no publishing company would help them).

That's what I thought too. Almost everything that was in that book was in LOTR. Well, maybe that's why the book is so popular.
In the second book, I hated how he wouldn't leave Arya alone. Couldn't he take a hint? It was annoying.

It's been a while since I last read the book but I think that she already rejected him once or he already knew that she didn't like him.

Actually, Arya did have feelings for Eragon but couldn't express it because her duty and Eragon's got in the way. And plus she was like 90 years older than him even though she look just as young and don't forget about Angela's prophecy about how eragon would have an epic love with somebody royal.

In the last book, I just want to see how he kills the Ra'zac and follow thw werecat's instuction in getting the weapon under the Menoa Tree and going to the Rock of Kuthian.

yeah I remember that. I guess everyone who read the book would know that he was gonna be in love with Arya.

Instead of talking about the book lets discuss the upcoming movie. So who is actually going to see it after they read the novel?
