This was my second time reading this book, and I remember that I loved this book the first time through. Now, however, after having read quite a few master-class books (Patrick Rothfuss comes to mind), I'm forced to downgrade my rating and say that Eragon is merely a good book. An easy, fast read - it nevers gets boring, and the characters and mostly believable. However, Paolini steals ideas from other books in the genre willy-nilly, to the point that there's very little in here that's original. To his credit, all the concepts mesh together really well, and make for a great read! Three stars!
