A book I’ve had for ages, but never got around to reading it. A fantasy tale very similar to Lord of the Rings, but not as complicated. At least that is the impression I got from reading this book - the first in the series. I like fantasies and world-building, but prefer more easy to read books like Harry Potter. Even while the story was interesting. I had to push myself to finish the book. I had the same experience with Lord of the Rings too, but I do like the story of Eragon. It’s quite interesting. I however, don’t think that I’ll be completing the series this time.
