Eragon: A Match for HP?

Thanks to TLC

Eragon scribe Christopher Paolini, asked by US News & World Report how his title character would fare in a duel against Harry, said Eragon would win because "he's got a dragon on his side."

The article says Eragon, an impressive first effort from Paolini, who wrote it when he was 15, just took Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix's top-spot on the NYTimes hardcover children's bestseller list. This would be a more impressive feat had OotP not been out for seven months. Would a dragon be enough for Eragon if he and Harry shared release dates? Probably not.
