Title: The Essence of Premature Publishing- a review of Eragon
Review: The first thing I want to say about this book is that the cover is absolutely stunning- no, really, look at it: There is Sapphira the dragon and her awesome azure eye, beckoning to all fans of Tolkien, of fantasy...of 497-page-long novels...they're in for a nasty shock. Cliches! Useless descriptions of /lamps/! An 'ancient language' that sounds like a dying furby! A main character who is meant to be talented, kind, and courageous, but is portrayed as stupid, sentimental and ridiculously talented at everything-swordfighting, reading, magic-he attempts! Robbery of ideas from Tokien, McCaffrey and Lucas!Haste makes waste, Paolini! Wait a few more years before asking Mom and Dad to publish your crap![...]
