For the first few paragraphs, the book comes across like a fanfiction paying tribute to more established fiction novels like Lord of the Rings. Once you get past that, then Paolini's originality starts showing through.
The book is written by a teenager, and the lack of world experience shows up here and there. This is also a strength, however, as the main character is also a teenager, and his view and emotions perfectly reflects that of a person that age.
There is a story that needs to be told, and Paolini manages to keep me interested enough to turn to the next page.
