But this author is judged much more harshly and unjustly because he is young by people who are unable to form their own opinions and blindly judge the worth of a book by its acclaim.

And the fact that this book is not a cult classic such as Tolkein’s should not affect its merit. Reviewed in the United States on JIt is a very good book and is only insulted by those jealous of the young author’s success. Why do I like it? Of course, Saphira, the Blue Dragon, is a wonderful character. She is a wise and wise-cracking creature with a tremendous sense of humor. Eragon is a believable hero who grows in complexity as he ages and meets the many challenges in his life.

We meet elves, dwarves, sorcerers, monsters, witches, a werecat and humans, some good, some evil. What sets this series above the typical dragon fantasy is its very practical understanding of politics.

I am amazed at the astuteness of the young author of these works. Reviewed in the United States on MaHe understands the impact politics has on our morality and presents numerous examples of the dangers all of us face when presented with political decision making. I thoroughly enjoyed Eragon pdf book, Eldest, Brisingr, and Inheritance of Chris Paolini’s The Inheritance Cycle series. Originally intended as a trilogy, their bestselling success spawned a fourth book, which was a very welcome addition. I have since handed them down to my nephew where they are enjoying a new life with a new generation. Though they’ve been out for quite awhile now, I have to be honest and say I bought them years ago, and only got them off the shelf a few months ago.
