Eragon Chapter Forty
I have to wonder, just what can Murtagh add to the story here? I mean, Eragon has everything. He’s got his magic, the dragon, an enchanted sword and the favor of the author. Murtagh told us that he’s good enough … Continue reading

Eragon Chapter Thirty Nine
So why hasn’t the market for diamonds dropped out in Eragon’s universe? I mean, if Saphira can transform rock into diamond, sandstone no less which should lack the proper amount of carbon, then why can’t she do it for fun … Continue reading

Eragon Chapter Thirty Eight
I love how Chris tried to surprise us with the revelation that Brom was a dragon rider. I know I was stunned in to silence. By the stupidity, especially Eragon’s. I mean, what was Eragon thinking? That there’s just that … Continue reading
Eragon Chapter Thirty Seven
This chapter is called ‘legacy of a rider’. Hmm, what could that be referring to? Is it Eragon? Maybe he dies in this chapter and leaves behind a ridiculous legacy so pathetic that the people decide to throw off the … Continue reading

Eragon Chapter Thirty Four
Okay, so I have a petty gripe(don’t I always?). How many of you have taken a look at the cover art for Eragon? It’s okay if you haven’t but I want you to look it up. Go on, bring up … Continue reading
Eragon Chapter Thirty Three
This chapter is called ‘a trail of oil’. I guess that means Eragon has been following a BP drilling platform. (Ba-dum tish) Or maybe an Exxon tanker. (Ba-dum tish) Heck, it might even be someone carrying a box of chicken … Continue reading
Eragon Chapter Thirty Two
This chapter is called ‘the mire of dras-leona’. Why not be a little more accurate and call it ‘the mire of eragon’ or ‘the mire of stupidity and dragging plots that move slower than glaciers’? Or would that be far … Continue reading
Eragon Chapter Thirty One
This chapter is called ‘master of the blade’. Hmm, Eragon isn’t good enough to use a sword so what is Chris implying? I think it has something to do with tissues and sobbing in a corner while looking over erotic … Continue reading
