Ok, rant time, lets see what i can write out.

Names:...Chrisy, get yourself some originality, using the names Vanilor and Eridor IS NOT ORIGINAL!!!! Valinor and Eriador are two places that Professor Tolkien managed to create. Isenstar? Oh my gods, i think you mean Isengard. and Ardwen? Hello Arwen. *runs off to fetch book*. Ok i can go on. Eldor? Sounds a lot like... Elladan, Elrohir, Elrond, should i go on? Gil'ead? Gil-Galad. Rona? Thats a hardware store for peats sake!! Oh, and i forget what book it is, but the name Murtag has already been taken, adding an h does not make it original. Galfni-Gandalf. Eoam-Eomer, man... this is starting to kill me. And one of the worst Beirland...i almost died when i read that on the map. Another really bad one, Melian, how freaking obviouse is that.

Plot:Holy flying cheese! These books could be called Star of the Rings, wow man! Kid living with uncle, uncle dies at hands of some weird beast with an unpronounceable name. Kid gets some magical thing(Saphira, lightsaber you could say and the Ring). Kid vows revenge, gets help from some weird old man(Brom was ok, but too similiar to Star Wars characters and Gandy). An epic quest takes place with a shady character(Murtagh-Aragorn(who is so much hotter than Murtagh)). Old weird man dies(oh wow...Gandy and that other dude). Continues on blah blah balh, in this case Star Wars kicks Eragons skinny blonde butt. And someone called this an epic. Absoloutely not, not in any way shape or form is CP's little trilogy an "epic" is a waste of paper, and he killed hundreds of thousands of trees publishing this "epic"

Characters:Eragon-Luke, need i say more? Brom-Gandalf, other wierd charrie from SW. Murtagh-Aragorn, Arya-Arwen, Saphira-Ring, you could compare Orik to Gimli... thats really all i can think of, but he's a plagurizing little man and i hate his guts.

One of my main rants is Eragon, in other words Marty-Sam, a character than has many tragic things happen to them, make it sportingly through, and : show no emotion what so ever, have amazing powers that usually take years to build up, have hundreds of women flocking after them and are very thick.

I detest his books, i have both btw, CP needs to get himself an imagination and some backbone so he can creat names that aren't so blatantly Tolkien. The movie was a let down, and CP needs to have his brains bashed out. There, i've had my say...*is content*


EDIT:I would also like to say that Eragon will not appeal to the legions of readers who have been captivated by the Lord of the Rings trilogy, if being captivaed means bashing and burning it then yes.

"Sorry if i sound like im bashing the books, which probably am, but this is my opinion, and if you dont like it, we agree to disagree."
