I picked up the first book for exactly that reason.  I had heard over and over again how amazing it was that a kid wrote the books.  Once i started reading I just assumed that I had misunderstood people.  I guess they were just amazed that the kid had gotten his work published so early, I thought they meant that it was amazing that a kid wrote something that good.

Which it isn't.

Good that is.

Eragorn takes just too much ideas from the "Dragon Riders of Pern" Chronicles, which are so much better, Harry Potter isn't half bad, and the third I didnt read so wouldnt know.

i know what you mean i mean the 4th book rock but when the 6th book came out dumbldore died

 

Cute.. thanks for that.

It's like when I watched a pirated Die Hard 4 a while back. Whoever it was that pirated the movie, decided to edit the video and placed a book spoiler on TVs during certain scenes. So instead of seeing the background "news video" on the televisions, it would show the spoiler in white text on black background.

It was like... hmm.. okay, thanks.

3 year old thread resurrection. Good job.

 

 I don't read these books. I'll say nothing else.

 

Edit: Also, I think we've got ourselves a troll, or an over-enthusiastic kid on our hands.

Where is the option for "none of the above, I prefer novels not written for children"?

Seriously, all three of those series are fun to read, but if they remotely represent the scope of the literary material you have acquired, you have barely scratched the surface of what is available. It is roughly equivalent to watching a few Dragon Ball Z episodes and declaring it to be the best of all animes without ever seeing anything else in the category.

EDIT: way to go proving my point the unknown

Not playing MMOs, and hating every minute of it.

  Didn't say that you did. I'm afraid that honor belongs to our beloved Eragon fanatic over here.

I have to say eragon is very cliche story wise. And i cant understand why it got the accolades like it did especially for what was largly a dragonrider clone. Harry potter was what i voted for it has a lot more depth than eragon and is not as predictable as Eragon. The Artimas Fowl one i havent read so cant comment.

Yea, just because it wins a poll on mmorpg.com doesn't mean that it will get made into a game man.

Short answer No.

 

Long answer, Eragon does not lend itself to a MMO due to the lack of content to it. Harry Potter has a similar problem but not as bad as Eragon has the problem of lack of content.
