When it takes about a hundred pages to cross a bloody feild it cant be a good book ! I read the trilogy after my grandfather gave it to me for christmas and i was completely bored ! and you barely see me without a book in my hand. Some say that Christopher Paolini's Eldest is a rip off of these books but they're wrong, because Christopher Paolini's books are much more interesting. If you,like me, dont like these books i suggest you check out Eragon,and Eldest by Cristopher Paolini as they are a much better read. I have to Give J.R.R Tolkien credit though. His books did make a great movie
