TERRiBLE

18 months ago

My brother loves this book but personally I couldn't stand it. I got through about 100 pages before I started to doze off while reading it. Eragon captivates your attention but Eldest is terrible. I am not planning on buying Brisingr, so I don't know if this series will deteriorate more than it already has...

I loved it, just as much as the first. Well actually more, it was great! and i am so excited to hear not only with there be a third but now a forth to make this the inheritance cycle! im so excited. This book kept me reading late into the nights forgeting and not worrieing about my early alarm clock. (i even missed a morning of school to finish this book) a sad ending with so many questions left to be answered and i cant wait! --I love Saphiras character! she is one of my favorites--

Book 1 was better

This is a really big book and has a lot of boring moments. But along with that there are many adventurous things happening at the same time.

Plagiarised from Dungeons and Dragons

3 years ago

The first book was bad enough. We can only blame his parents for publishing it. The second book is full of words and ideas stollen from other books. The main character has a 'battle wound' that causes him pain and bad feelings with all 5 senses. The teacher that teaches the main character is smack out of The Karate Kid. Children who like the book, will not have read Dungeons and Dragons. Even the name of the Saphiras mother is from Harry Potter. In the beginning of the audio book… + read more

Spectacular; I can't wait for more!

3 years ago

Christopher Paolini's second installment in the Inheritance series, Eldest, is eloquently written and has a well-constucted plot that keeps the reader hooked throughout. Although the book is in the 600s page range, I was able to whiz through it in no time, due to the fact that it was so exciting. I just could not put it down! In book 2 of this series, readers follow Eragon as he continues his venture to destroy the Empire, led by the evil Galbatorix. Eragon journeys to Ellsemera to meet The… + read more

MORE! MORE!

One of the two best books I've ever read, both written by Paolini. rarely took my hand off it except in gym class and sometimes I read in gym class. (ask any of my friends) Sad at the end... PAOLINI, YOU BETTER DO A GOOD JOB ON THE THIRD ONE CAUSE WE'RE WATCHING YOU. Can't wait till the next book comes out.

Very well written, though there are several co-inc

3 years ago

I'll admit, when I first read Eldest I thought it was an absolutely amazing story. Creative description, suspense, action, adventure, a hint of romance, and a surprising twist to the story at the end (I know how annoying it is when people give away parts of the book!) However, as some other critics and reviewers have said "There is quite a bit of co-incidental instances in the book, such as names, places, that sort of stuff. Through and through, I would recommend this novel to booklovers and… + read more

The second book in the inheritance trilogy and a must read. After reading Eragon i rushed to the book store to buy Eldest. I just couldnt put it down !

A masterpiece in the triology

4 years ago

This book is outstanding, continuing the story started in Eragon. Similar to LOTR, but not too close, this book weaves a tale of fantasy, the Dragon Riders, Elves, Dwarves and the war against King Galbatorix. Filled with outstanding plot twists and surprises, this book is again one for all ages. If you enjoyed Eragon, I strongly recommend this book!
