Eragon wasn't bad but it was different than the book.

Hmmm...home schooled author.

Publication history

Christopher Paolini was home schooled in Montana, and graduated from high school at the age of fifteen. He and his parents felt he should wait before attending college, so meanwhile he began writing Eragon. His parents' publishing company, Paolini International, LLC, published his book when he was nineteen. The book was then discovered by Alfred A. Knopf and was republished under Knopf in 2002. With Knopf as the publisher, Eragon became a success and a New York Times Bestseller. After release of the film for the movie, a new cover was released for the book. The new cover shows the actors standing together and Saphira flying in the background. It was released at $6.00-$10.00 per book.

one thing about eragon, i am a big fantasy nerd so i like stuff like that but it is a blatant rip off of lord of the rings in large part. Literally about half of the book you can look at and say yep that comes from lotr.
