ColonyOfReaders discussion

I saw this interesting Comic Con interview. Author Christopher Paolini (author of Eragon) interviews Patrick Rothfuss (author of The Name Of The Wind). Very interesting discussion on writing fantasy.

Neat. While some dislike the Eragon series. I find them to be a great quick read, much like the Harry Potter series.

Despite the fact that Eragon is not good literature, it's a fun, entertaining adventure. It's nothing new but damn is it a good time to read if you just want to shut off your brain and read something. It's the Hollywood summer movie of a book.

Hey that is what I said, just not so artsy fartsy!

LOL! I was agreeing with you. Just in my own words :D Also, artsy fartsy? Really? I left like I was babbling LOL!

Heh.

I do agree with your sentiment about turning your brain off while reading the book. Doing that with some books and movies make them far more enjoyable.
