Eragon is my favorite book. For ages 12 & up. Here is my review.Eragon by Christopher Paolini.
Eragon is about a 16 year old boy, named Eragon, who finds a dragon egg in the Spine, the large, some say haunted, woods while hunting. The legacy of Dragon Riders is being restored as Eragon and Saphira, his dragon, go on a dangerous journey to avenge Eragon's uncle's death with an old man named Brom. Eragon is constantly being chased by servants of the evil king, Galbatorix, who is boiling with rage, and feels threatened with coming of the new Dragon Rider. Eragon ends up meeting an elf named Arya, a strange young man named Murtagh, and dreadful secrets that change Eragons life. Join Eragon in this great and adventurous book as he tries to restore hope of a better life in Alagasiea.
In this book I feel like I'm in the book with Eragon. I have always loved fantasy and Christopher Paolini's best selling book bring fantasy to the extreme. I recommend this to all who love read.
The positive - Their is as mention of a higher power, there is great loyalty. Although in the Negative I stated that there was a wanting for revenge, in the end he used his gift for good, instead of evil.
The negative - a few mild swear words can be read. Mentions witches and magic is a present theme, but nothing to realistic, it's all very imaginary. There is also a want for revenge that stays throughout the book.
This a great book.
