Yeah, Ive read it. Also watched the movie, also played the game. The movie was good. Im reading Eldest now. I think Im on page 140 something... good book though so far.

It is so good. What do you think the next book will be called? Both titles have 6 letters. Both of them describe a rider. Both start with E. Maybe Empire. But I don't think so since the Empire doesn't need another Dragon. They have two. Maybe 6 letters, the E, or dragon rider is just a coincidence. Any title predictions from any of you.

They are good books I have them both (Eragon and Eldest). I like the mix between fantasy and still dramatic and possible to relate to, although I dont like the romance between the elf (her name has slipped my mind) and Eragon... kind of an old cliche. I hope Christopher Paolini doesn't start making it to much like the big bad vs. the gallant little kid who saves the day, like what happened in the last book of Pendragon.... I'm not even sure if I'm going to read the next Pendragon because of that bad ending...

Oh well, off topic XD I just hope he keeps writing good books and we can follow Saphira and Eragon some more.

I have read Eragon and Eldest and I actually did like them as books. But when you look at the big scheme of things, it might just be kind of coinidental. In the book cover it says, "His (Paloni's) abbiding love of fantasy inspired him," or something like that. Then I think about it and I think he just took the plot line of Star Wars (not literally, but it is apearent), then placed it in a Lord of the Rings world. He kind of even forgot to change his two main character's names... Eragon and Arya.. kinda suspicous.

But all in all, they are good reads and a nice addition to any fantasy collection. And about number 3, I hopes he surprises me...

The books are really great, I'm reading Eldest for the 2nd time, I have read Eragon two times too... Dont watch the movie neither play the game, they are both big ****, how can a book be so good and a movie so bad, i would like if they made a 3+ hours film, with much more than this, I dont care about how long it is if it is a good movie... cant wait for the 3rd book...

How exactly does the plotline relate to Star Wars?

Also, where are the names Eragon and Arya used in any of the Star Wars films?

As both a die hard Star Wars and Paolini fan I fail to see your point.

Plus, Arya does take a large part but is not a main character.

The books rotate around three main characters, Eragon, Saphira, and Brom.

Until, of course, Brom's unfortunate death. Personally, I believe Murtagh then becomes quite main, but of course fades after his dissappearance.

It is widely believed in many online Eragon fansites and forums that the next book will in fact be entitled Empire.

Personally, I found the film to be an extreme dissappointment, largely due to them missing out three quarters of the first book and filling it in with the majority of the important parts of the second book (like the above spoiler).

Many of my favourite parts from Eragon weren't included - some of them running plotlines.

I believe they did to the Eragon film what they did to the latest instalment of the Harry Potter films - butchered it.

I absolutely cannot wait for the new book and anticipate it's release eagerly, which I believe is sometime next month, or if not, November.

It's very sad for me that the Inheritance trilogy has to come to an end, but you know what they say, all good things do!

Personally, I try to block out all memories of the ATROCITY that Fox attempted to call a film of the book.

Have heard of Pendragon but haven't actually read it, thinking about it though.

And elrohir, after reading your post i'm very interested in reading World of Time! If I get it I'll be sure to tell you what I think!

I haven't read the book before but I heard the book is much better than the movie so I guess its something I can look into.

the relationship between man and dragon, a Dragoon is what Eragon told about and that's what I've been searching for so long.

Eragon is one of my three novel titles that I read. The other titles were Harry Potter (all of them, right now read the last book) and DA Vinci Code - Angel and Demon. I've read Eragon and Eldest and in a long wait for Inheritance to come. I like how the way Eragon developed himself in his journey, I could feel his desire to become strong coming from just reading the book.

However though, I'm not really like the movie of Eragon. I like how they made Sapphira but only her is the one I could give my 'ok'. I just could hope if Eldest is coming, they should make more than Eragon, at least how they made the romance between the elf and human in Eldest and of course the war that written in the last part of the book.

I really want to read it, but everytime I pick it up, I have something to do?
If its worth it, Ill read it properly, as everyone was talking about how good it was. Is it?
