I opened the package up and saw the how big it was, its so damn ginormous; 851 Pages, not including Acknowledgements or stuff like that. Guess what I'm doing! Other than not having a very active social life :'D
It wasn't that the book was bad or anything, I mean some aspects of the plot were a little ridiculous even for a fantasy book but that it's okay, just god damn they were long. I cannot in good conscience continue with a book series that spends 100 pages on riding a horse through a field.
Replace 'riding a horse' with walking/running/being on foot and that was pretty much The Two Towers. Least what I can recall.
I spent 100 pages riding your mom through a field. .... Anyway, I didn't know until just now that that was the name of the Eragon series until just now.
