What's the exact point where everything went so wrong ?
when you thought this was literature.

The chapter where Eragon heals the blacksmith's baby in Inheritance.
Also Eragon falling for that self-fulfilling prophecy.
Overall I enjoyed the saga though.
When it was but a thought in a child's mind.

>fantasy nonsense which cannot ever be applied to real life

This shit is literal trash. Send it to me so I can wipe my ass with it.
It'd enjoyable for children just getting into serious lit. So I'd say it's alright.
Book 2 was absolutely horrendous except for the parts about his cousin. It was mostly just the horny little shit checking out the elf girl and being dismayed at TFW no gf. 3 was a little better but not good enough to make want to read 4. I enjoyed 1 for what it was though.

Regardless of your views on the book

>can't be applied to real life
>this somehow triggered you
What?
>>7648303
When the Jews won World War 2.
>>7648303
It was shit from the beginning
I enjoyed it when I was 14 and hated it by the time I was the authors age (16)
And I've enjoyed a lot of fantasy, this series is so bad it's close to being good satire of shitty fantasy

>>I've never read fantasy novels
Paolini tier thought process

pretty much this sums up why i like it. i read it at a time before i started actually reading.

Oh, zing!
>>7648303
Why are you here?
>>>/r/books
Not even fucking kidding.
>>7648303
I just can't stand the fact that the autist who wrote this shit got rich and famous off it. Or maybe he was actually really smart and realized that there was a huge audience of retards out there who would buy trash tier writing if it was about dragons and elves?

>tfw you will never change one letter in the word dragon
>tfw you will never write 4 books regardless of quality
>tfw you will never be rich from selling LoTR fanfiction
>tfw you visited your folks and realized 2/4 of these books were on the shelf in your old room
>you will never throw away 6 or more years of your life on a quadrilogy that you realize is eminently shitty halfway through
>you will never feel what it's like to finally throw off the chains of childhood by completing your final manuscript and just saying "fuck it!"
>you will never get to start a series fresh after acknowledging from the deepest depths of your heart that you'll do better this time
> you will never be Christopher Paolini

The thing is, I would love to get rich and famous, but I'm afraid I would hate myself if what I got rich and famous for was retarded as shit. It's like being a world class gay porn star.

The red one. Paolini showed promise, but in the end, it was the same old shit I've seen again and again
>>7651122did you really not get that
