Title: Clichés, yes but still good.
Review: The whole story is a cliché, I confess. Dragon Riders from Pern, elves and dwarves from LOTR, big nasty emperor from all sorts of places, poor kid whose relatives or mentor gets killed etc.It seems as if the book isn't worth all the clamor it is getting.But sometimes, there are exceptional cases where, even though there are clichés, the story is still a page turner, and I think Eragon is one.Although there is room for improvement, but for a young author, who wrote the book when he was 16, it's a great start and I am looking forward to his next book.Forget clichés, forget LOTR, just read and enjoy. Don't compare. Besides, if we were to critize every story just because it is similar to another one, why read then?
