Negative Positive
Title: Master Paolini? I think not.
Review: I have recently read some reviews by five star people in response to one star people. They make their case. He is fifteen, say the one star people. They say, Give him a break. After reading this, I have my own views on the matter. First, I admit it is very good for a teen writer. However, it is not good for a published work of fiction. I would accomadate for his flaws and agree with the five star people had he not said on his site, "I strive for a lyrical beauty somewhere between Tolkien at his best and Seamus Heaney's translation of Beowulf." Obviously, the publicity of this book has bloated his ego, because his writing is nowhere near that of the aformentioned authors. I can only hope that you will not fuel his vanity and purchase a copy of Eragon.
Is the review positive or negative?
