Eragon: The Inheritance Cycle, Book 1

I quite enjoyed the story and loved the narration by Gerrard Doyle.

Sooooo much better than the movie. A good start to what appears to be a great Fantasy series.

Loved the portrayal of Brom, loved the character in the movie as portrayed by Jeremy Irons (a most underutilised actor) and it was great to see him fleshed out in the book and greatly portrayed by Gerrard.

The story and so many things in this book are obviously inspired by Tolkiens' works, but done with a obvious love of the original source and with just the right spin to make it his own world, an incredible feat for any author let alone a 16 year old novice (I believe that's how old Mr Paolini was when he finished Eragon).I look forward to sharing this book with my children as they grow older as it is a fine addition to anyone who loves Dragons and the bond they can have with their riders.

I wonder if Anne McCaffrey ever read Eragon?

it is the best book ever so wonderful. it stirs up emotions guide you to all the places eragon goes.

loved the show. The narrator is fantastic with pronunciations and his narration skills.
Cannot wait to listen to the next book.

Yes, this is an audio book I will listen to over and over again as well loved characters come to life. Gerrard Doyle has a beautiful voice and the life he instills in his characters makes thems so much more real - and there are quite a few.

I enjoyed how you share Eragons journey from simple farm boy to Dragon Rider and I love Saphira's development and the sense of humour and possessiveness she has for Eragon. The whole world that you are introduced to, the magic, elves, dwarfs, dragons and intrigues are thoroughly enjoyable.

The scene where Saphira and Eragon drink too much mead and Saphira belches a huge flame before passing out

Come and experience the re-birth of a legend and one man's journey from innocent farm boy to fierce Dragon Rider

The movie that was made would have been a huge success if the film makers had stayed true to the characters in the book. It's the reason the Harry Potter and Twilight transition from book to film was so successful - the films stayed true to the characters and story lines whereas with Eragon the characters in the film had, at best, only a vague resemblance to the detailed descriptions of the characters in the book (& Arya looked nothing like her description in the book) and, if you had not read the books, the film made no sense at all

This is one of my fav books.
The narrator is pretty good and the storyline is
"Brilliant"
