Eragon -- reviewed by James Mandani


This review is about the book by Christopher Paolini titled Eragon, the first book in the inheritance cycle. This book is a great read for those that like fantasy, action and magic. The story takes place during the medieval times when serfs and lords existed as well as the strong belief about magical creatures, magic and races other than humans. 


Now to the story, this book is about a young man named Eragon while hunting, suddenly gets blinded by a light and in its place laid a beautiful blue stone. Not being able to catch anything, he takes the stone home thinking it may be traded for some money or food. But little does he know that the stone he picked up would change his life in a way he least expects. 


Truly a great book to read that even me who does not like to read very much was sucked into it to the point of not hearing and not being able to pay attention to my surroundings often forgetting that I am in school inside my class when we have free reading time. For a person who does not like to read like me, Eragon will get you started.


A personal opinion; the best part about this book to me is waiting In anticipation on how the main character would develop alongside his friends and comrades, how his new future or fate would affect him and how he will try to adapt to his new surroundings.

    I picked this book out because it caught my eye by the cover. It has short little poems when her father and she move to India and start a new life there. I like the book I can’t put it down it’s so good and juicy. This book is for people that don’t like to read. This book is full of little cute stories. I thought it was about a story that a girl is mean to her friends but her father decided to get up and move because her mother dies. From my point of view it’s interesting but some people don’t like short stories. If you like mysteries or surprises this book is for you. Then she meets a boy and she opens up to him and tells him how she kind of loves living in India but rather live Delhi. It’s about how she meets new friends and how she likes school but wishes she lives in Delhi and where all her friends are.
