Books

Did anyone else read Eragon growing up? One of the few books I've read several times over.

omfg the movie. I was lucky enough to watch it with a friend and about 10 min in we took it as a comedy. Idk if i've ever laughed that much during a movie since.

One of the scenes that killed us was when Eragon went into the prison to rescue Brom, checked a room, it was empty, then was confronted by the shade, who launched a spell at him. Then Brom jumped out of the same room to take the spell. We cried laughing.

Preach! ✊ That and the connection with Dragons. Also yeah 15 is pretty unbelievable. 

Funner fact: He just wrote a new book about Murtagh and might be writing a new book that follows Eragon after the end of the series.

yes, his conception of magic and how it respected laws of energy conservation was elegant esp. compared to Harry Potter (which I was also reading at the time) which was... hand wavy 

fun fact: Christopher Paolini started working this book when he was 15 and published it when he as 18

Hmm tough to say. I love it but I was young when I read it so idk how your experience will be. Def worth a shot though.

Read Tolkien first. Faded Harry Potter and Eragon that came after, but not Game of Thrones (books, not the show ofc).

Should I give Eragon the book a chance?

There's actually 4 in the series, but agreed the 1st one hits diff

Bro this is hands down one of the best books I’ve ever read

The second follow up was great too but didn’t surpass the original

Yeah that part blew my mind. I think he was even younger, like 15 or something

i did

lowkey crazy that the author was like 18 when he wrote the first book

Yeah I heard! Murtagh. Might be time to pick it up if another one comes out.

Gift this to our kid and a few other kids..

A keeper...

Yes!! These were my favorite as a teen. My cousin got me a signed copy as a gift when the first book came out and I ended up waiting for the next book in the series 🔥🙌

Absolutely loved Eragon as a kid. Still amazes me that Paolini wrote it at 15
