|  Eldest
Its the sequel to Eragon. I read it in 5 days...I could have done better, but I didn't feel like rushing. Anyway, I think it was 10 times better than Eragon. I loved every thing about it! |

I'm half way through it, it's alright. It's just starting to bug me how everything seems somewhat similar to LotR and also how Christopher Paolini insists on showing off his HUGE vocabularly at every given opportunity. I have to read the book with the dictionary by my side! I prefer Eragon so far. | |

Definitely better than the first one, which was none too shabby. It's annoying how he always uses 'occurred', even where 'happened' would have been more comfortable.
So, it looks like Nasuada is the girl from the fortune-telling after all, eh?
Or do you think he's not the sort to move in on his brother's girl?

Well, I think Arya's made it pretty clear that she's not interested in Eragon. Both she and Nasuada fit the description in the first place, but "epic romance" implies that the feeling is mutual.
Nasuada is more his age anyway, and it's clear that Saphira likes her, whereas she had misgivings about Eragon's crush on Arya. | |

Ah but he will eventually. Adolescent crushes fade after a few months. | |
