review 1: This series of books drew me in and holds a place in my heart since it it is my favorite book series that I've read. A poor farm boy Eragon finds what he believes to be a blue stone. What he did not expect however that it's actually a dragon egg and Eragon takes up the legendary mantle of the Dragon Riders. Once you start reading you don't want to stop. I recommend this book to anyone who loves fantasy books.
review 2: I made the mistake of watching the movie "Eragon" before I read any of the books. After reading just the first book you really realize what a hack job they did on the movie. Aside from special effects that really were quite good, the rest of the movie could have been put together in a much better way. I was captivated by these books more than I h
... moreave ever been before. I couldn't put it down after I started reading, I would just get lost in the world of Alagaesia, that Eragon and his charasmatic dragon Saphira lived,fought and survived in. Christopher Paolini is a "fantasy world genius". I love the way he layered in many culturally different peoples ways of living and folklore along with their unique cities, towns and villages. It takes a brilliant,imaginative and intuitive mind to create a land the likes of Alagaesia the way he did. Not to mention that he started writing Eragon and graduated high school when he was but 15 years old. I would recommend this series of books to anyone that has an interest in fantasy stories, medieval times,sword fighting, dragons, elves/dwarves & magic/folklore of elves/dwarves, or anything relating to any of these topics. I could go on and on about how great all 4 books are but you need to find that out for yourself. :) less
