Re: Books that are similar to Belgariad

and alas for Eragon, the general plot, the character details, the enviromnental descriptors, the attemped emotive respone of Eragon are all lifted straight out of Anne McCaffrey's, JRR Tolkein's and David & Leigh Eddings works.
Yes there are bound to be similarities to other fantasy genre works, but Paolini's plagiarism is rather blatant.
