This is a reread so it was interesting to pay attention to how I felt the first time I read it and now that I am older. In the past I would have given 5 stars but now I am giving only 4. It was good to read but it is not a masterpiece. Eragon is annoying and arrogant, which I totally understand as he is still a teenager, but I do hope he’ll evolve with the next books. I don’t remember much about his behavior on the 2nd and 3rd book and I haven’t read the 4th and 5th yet, morevoer, as this is the first book of the series there was not much character development as it was already expected.
