I'm on a roll!!!

Well, here goes a series (I really gotta stop doing JUST series!) that is different from the books on here up to date. Before I start, I would like to mention something. This series should get an honorable mention from me because when I was in sixth grade, I hated to read. I swear my reading level was around a third grader. But I wanted to see the the movie based on this book. My friend said she would take me only if I read the book. So that started me on my reading adventure. So here we go!

It all starts with a young boy. He is my age, 15. He is a young farm boy who knows nothing about his past, like who his parents are, why didn't they keep him, and what they were like. This boys name is Eragon. He lives with his uncle, Garrow, and cousin, Roran, in the small town of Carvahall in the country of Alagaësia. There is a legend about Alagaësia many years ago: a golden age. The people were free and they were protected by the Dragon Riders. But there was one Rider who wanted power. He gathered thirteen followers called the Forsworn. Together, they brought down and destroyed the Riders. From then on, the leader called himself king and now rules Alagaësia as the last Dragon Rider. His name is Galbatorix. Eragon has heard this story from a mysterious story teller named Brom. He kept saying that the Riders will rise once again and destroy Galbatorix.
One night, Eragon was hunting in the Spine, the deadly mountain range that runs the western coastline of Alagaësia. In this trip, there was an explosion that sent the deer Eragon was hunting running. In the middle of the clearing, there was a smooth, polished blue stone that appeared as if by magic. After a while, the stone started acting strange: it was moving! The stone turned out to be an egg that contained a dragon thay waited for thousands of years waiting for its Rider to show up. Eragon couldn't believe that he was chosen to be a Dragon Rider. When he touched the dragon, something shot through him like an electric shock. It left a shining mark that Eragon would soon know as the gedwëy ignasia of the shining palm.
Eventually, weird things started to occur in Carvahall. People in cloaks showed up looking for the stone Eragon found. These creatures were called Ra'zac. When they got a lead to where it was, Saphira, Eragon's dragon, took Eragon and flew him into the Spine to protect him. When they got back, the farm was burned down and Garrow was left dead. Eragon decided to flee Carvahall and he took Brom with him due to what he knew about dragons. Along the way, Eragon experiences visions about a beautiful woman he has never seen, he learns magic, he meets a stranger who, like him, is against Galbatorix's rule, and learns the truth about Alagaësia's Riders.
Follow Eragon, Saphira, Arya, Murtagh, The Varden (a group of people strong enough to stay out of Galbatorix's rule), and the elves of Du Weldenvarden as they try to overthrow Galbatorix and restore Alagaësia to it's peaceful state. Along the way, Eragon will have to battle through losses, fights with other Riders, find out the truth of his past, and learn the ways of the elves. I reccomend this series to anyone who enjoys books with dragons and magic. Some people might not give it a chance due to that, but come on! Give it a chance! The books in this series include Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr (fire in the Ancient Language), and a fourth book to be announced. Enjoy!!!

Why haven't I thought of this???

I wonder why this took so long for me to post, but I just remembered. This series is one of my all time FAVORITE series of all time. I believe I am speaking for over half the world when I say this, so here we go!!!

What would happen if around your eleventh birthday, you get a mysterious letter addressed to you from a place you only thought existed in your wildest dreams? What would you do if a giant came and told you your fate? Well, this is what happened to Harry Potter. He lives with his aunt, uncle, and cousin. He never knew his parents and he was never told the truth about how they died. On his eleventh birthday, a giant (named Rubius Hagrid) came to Harry and told him that he was a wizard. Harry also learned the truth about his parents; They were murdered by a Dark wizard named Lord Voldemort (or You-Know-Who) and when You-Know-Who tried to kill Harry, he couldn't and he "died." This made Harry the most famous person in the wizarding world. This was a shock to Harry. Harry never had any friends and other non-magic people (or Muggles) thought he was weird. When Harry started at Hogwarts, he met two people, Ron Weasley (who is a pure-blood), the youngest boy of seven children, the youngest being his younger sister, and Hermione Granger, a Muggle-born whose parents are dentists. (Harry is a half-blood, with his mother being Muggle-born and his father being pure-blood) All three of them are in Godric Griffindor's house. He also meets his worst enemy; Draco Malfoy who is a pure-blood and whose whole family (other than his mother's cousin) has been is the worst house ever; The Slytherin house.
In this series of seven books, Harry, Ron, and Hermione play through a giant game of Wizard's Chess, battle a giant snake, learn the truth about a mass murderer who is innocent, fight against Lord Voldemort himself with his band of followers called Death Eaters, and save the wizarding world. I HIGHLY recommend this series to everyone out there. I know people who hate to read, but Harry Potter is the best. These books are one of the world's top selling series ever.
This series includes Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's (or Philosopher's in Britain) Stone, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Enjoy reading!!
