Well, it may be, but Paolini was at an age where the vast majority wouldn't have read something like the Belgariad. I think it's more 'Lowest common denominator,' than deliberate copying. It would be irritating, though. I got the first 2 'Eragon,' books for Christmas but haven't got around to reading them yet.
