Title: Not entirely original, but fun just the same
Review: To everyone who keeps saying that the themes in this book have been done before, I do agree that there are many parallels between Eragon and The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, The Chronicles of Narnia, and other fantasy series. However, as a book for young people, I still think it is well-written and enjoyable and very well done for a teen-age author. I don't think many kids his age could do as well. Most kids are not going to sit there and analyze the story and criticize it because it's too much like another book. Kids just enjoy a good story that keeps them engrossed, and these days I'm in favor of anything that will keep kids reading.
