Eragon and Eldest

[Unkown]

Has anyone read it?
I love the book, #1 books I have EVER read!

The author even announced that it is no longer a trilogy but there is going to be 4 books.
I cant wait till they are released.

[AndThePickles]

I have, good books. I liked the first one the best, and I'm definitely eager for the next installment

 

[Speedball]

I've read Eragon.
It was okay, a total ripoff of Star Wars though.
I've wanted to read Eldest, but I haven't got the time. I barely have enough time to read my school books.
And the movie was...yeah...all copies of the film should be burned and Zatanna should mindwipe it from every human's mind.

 

[AndThePickles]

I refuse to watch the movie lol.

 

[Superhobo]

Books suck. Movie ultra-sucks. 'Nuff said.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Watched the movie. Too cliched and completely unoriginal.

 

[Victarion]

I did a character analysis of Eragon...turns out he's a sociopath.

BTW, Book 3 comes out this September. Its been split into 2 parts. No word on when Book 4 comes out.

You need to read more books, sonny.

 

[Ahura Mazda]

It was not bad but I prefer the sword of truth and wheel of time series.

Haha, even though I enjoyed the books, I have to agree t:

I most certainly dislike the books for reasons I'm too tired to explain, so I'll link you to a website that gives a well-structerd (if a little *****y) analysis of their failings: http://www.anti-shurtugal.com/wordpress/?page_id=11 . This is where the 'Eragon is a sociopath' bit comes from.

It's not a bad series of books, but not great either.

 

[Drizzle]

It's a rip-off of "Star Wars" with dragons. That's what you get when you give a 17-year old with not enough experience a book deal.

Well, people will probably tell you something like "go read The Dragonriders of Pern" since it came before Eragon. I gave Pern a go and in all honesty can say that it wasn't my cup of tea. Too much sci fi for my tastes. I will say that I liked the dragons' method of choosing their Riders in Pern better than in Eragon.

If you want more dragons, there's Pern (not my style) or a lesser-known series by Allan F. Troop called The Dragon DelaSangre. Its writtem from the perspective of a dragon and introduces a mythology to the creatures that I have never read about prior to this (Troop's) series. There are currently four book, the first being titled The Dragon DelaSangre. I really recommend them!

So Unkown I take it you are an Eragon fan? I've got some theories about Galbatorix I would like to share with you via PM if so.

---Morzan (Yeah, but at least I got a red dragon. They're the ferrarris of the dragon world )

 

[Elongated_Yen7]

I thought this was going to be about LOTR.

 

[Asteroid-Man]

I thought this was going to be about LOTR.

Your thinking of Aragorn

I know I was, but still.

Not all of the Pern books are super sci-fi...I still recommend that he go check some of them out. The ones that I like are in a trilogy: Dragonsong, Dragonsinger, and Dragondrums.

My favorite books about dragons are the Pitdragon books by Jane Yolen. Also a trilogy.
