beautiful imagery but...where is the story?

Date of Review:  Aug 8, 2005
The Bottom Line: I struggled between 3 and 4 stars, it is beautifully written but I ended up docking him a star because the story really does lack depth.
Review: As many of you know before even reading Eragon, the author began his debut novel at the age of fifteen…I feel inclined also to point out that the book wasn't even published until he was nineteen. I cannot help but wonder how much of the book was...

A Dragon's Tale from a Youthful Perspective

Date of Review:  Jan 17, 2006
The Bottom Line: While the writing was a little young-ish, this is definitely worth a read. I expect great things from this author.
Review: Fantasy stories have been around nearly forever, from Robert Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland to J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. Unfortunately, they developed somewhat of a stigma and had fallen out of the mainstream for the most part. Then...

I don't get the hype

Date of Review:  Nov 30, 2006
Review: I couldn't get past the first 3 pages. It felt like someone was trying to sound like Lord of the Rings only a real bad version of it. I have friends that like it but I just don't get why. I don't want to sound mean. I know another kid wrote it and...

When Tolkien and Lucas Collide

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2006
Review: Okay so this book is pretty much a cross between The Lord of Rings and Star Wars.
However since those happen to be my favorite book and movie respectively I loved this book.
The novel is a debut from a 19 year old writer who still lives at...

Eragon

Date of Review:  Aug 4, 2005
Review: I read this book aloud to my kids and they loved it. It was a wonderful way to spend an evening. The kids were just drawn into the story line as well as the excitement of the Dragon.

Anxious for the next one!

Date of Review:  Jul 20, 2004
Review: Eragon is a VERY good book. I read it in 2 days. I bought the book on a recommendation of a friend who raved about it. Also, I was intrigued by a book written by such a young person. I thought the book well written. Great plot, flow, and characters,...

Date of Review:  Oct 13, 2009
The Bottom Line: A truly incredible story!
Review: This book didn't disappoint! I saw the movie, and had been wanting to read the book for quite some time. I'm glad I finally found the time to read it, because it's probably one of the best books I've read in a very long time. It does a great job of...
