I am Christopher Paolini, and this is his email
I received the following email today:
From: Aaron Hevenstone
To: “ecb29@cornell.edu”
Subject: Who?Someone told me that this is the email of Christopher Paolini. If it is e-mail me and tell me. If it isn’t, im sorry for bothering you!
Update:
I got another email:
Hello. I don’t mean to disturb you, but I heard that this is Christopher
Paolini’s email address? I’m sorry, I imagine that if it is, you get all
kinds of obnoxious fan mail, and if it is not, you are quite tired of
getting emails such as this one. All that I can say as an excuse is that I
truly would love to get in touch with you, Mr. Paulini, assuming this is in
fact your email address. Would you mind emailing me back? My name is Casey
Casias, and I would like to speak to a professional writer (I am an ameteur
writer myself and love your books). Once again, I apologize if this is a
bother.Thank you,
Casey Casias
This prompted me to acquire the professional contact details for Mr. Paolini:
Christopher Paolini
c/o Michelle Frey
Random House Children’s Books
1745 Broadway, 9th Floor
New York, NY 10019
You can write him a letter at that business address if you feel like it.
Update: It seems that this won’t die, people keep sending me email not noting the sarcasm of this post. Don’t send me email, I’m not Chris Paolini:
Hello, My name is Angela Paolini. I’m Chris’ (Paolini) sister. i saw a blog (title of this email) do you claim to be Chris? I honestly do not believe you are. If you were you wouldn’t have referred to yourself in second person(”I am Christopher Paolini, and this is his e-mail”) Chris has never said anything to me about this blog. Please explain yourself.

on January 29th, 2006 at 4:16 pm
Is there gonna be a third book because there really should be… i hate books but this is like the only series i like
on January 31st, 2006 at 5:19 pm
What is the third book of your trilogy called ad what is it about
on February 2nd, 2006 at 5:00 pm
I’m sorry for bothering you, but this question has been bothering me. I want to know the name of the third book in your sequel.
on February 7th, 2006 at 3:16 pm
ok so i heard lots of talk about people saying they have Paolini’s web. If anyone ever finds it post it on here.
Thanks
on February 19th, 2006 at 6:58 pm
oy, i know no one probably knows when the third book is coming out, buuut if anyone does happen to know, please enlighten the rest of us!! Thanks! Oh and I wish they weren’t making a movie(from what I’ve heard they are) the movies alllways find a way to ruin it by skiping details and letting the lazy people who don’t want to read see what happens and then they miss things that should go with the plot. I learned my lesson after seeing the 3rd harry potter movie, i didn’t even go to see the fourth. How would they put this into a movie??? Remember lord of the rings and the dragon effects they had when gandelf was fighting it? There is no way they could keep those graphics up all through the movie and make it look good, oh and guess what? theres a dragon alll throughout this book!! It’s gonna cost a loot of money. I really hope they don’t ruin it, and everyone whose gonna see it, if its as bad as i think theyre gonna make it don’t waste your money when they come out with the second! Everyone does that (look at H.P.) Haha I’m probably gonna see the first one anyway too but only if the commercials look all right.
on March 1st, 2006 at 6:45 pm
ok this is really starting to bug me . i need to know what happens! like come ending it after that “Luke i am your father” moment is so unfair! o my god please write faster. i’m 17 and i don’t have much patience!
on March 5th, 2006 at 9:25 am

on March 11th, 2006 at 2:51 am

on March 14th, 2006 at 2:14 pm
i hope this is Christopher Paolini’s e-mail address and if it’s not i’m sorry for bothering you. when is the third book of the trilogy going to come out, and is it true that your starring in the movie? please e-mail me and answer the questions that i have asked. again if this isn’t Christopher’s e-mail i’m sorry for bothering you.

There should be an Inheradence video game that goes through Eragon, Eldest, and Empire! ^^
on March 18th, 2006 at 4:57 pm

on March 23rd, 2006 at 8:02 pm

on May 5th, 2006 at 2:04 pm
why do you post thos like retarded coments like “im 17 and dont have patients”. its like so rude to the chris.
on May 26th, 2006 at 1:44 am
Hi,
I’m writing a book and need copyright detatils on chris’s book, as the book I’m writing is based on alot of his ideas. If you can help me that would be appricatd. I would also like suggestions and corrections on publishing my book called’ Roen’. Thankyou

on May 28th, 2006 at 5:12 pm
Ok if Christopher Paolini is actually reading this{which i highly doubt} then quite nice to see you. If he isn’t then this was a waste of time. Anyways, if you are reading this Chris then i would like to ask you if you could give me a few tips on writing. I adore your books. I think their much better then Harry Potter of The Lord of The Rings ever were. I would love to ask you a few questions to, if you don’t mind. Please if this really is Christopher Paolini reading this, please write back.
As Always,
~Jennifer~
on May 31st, 2006 at 8:30 pm
I’m telling this to Michael. Eragon won’t be able to bring back Brom of Garrow. No matter how much energy he has, when you enter the void to bring someone back to life, your energy leaves you, no matter how much you have. Read Eragon again and you’ll see that. Brom said it.
on June 1st, 2006 at 9:26 am
Hi i am writing to find christopher paolini’s email. if this is you PLEASE EMAIL ME!!!!! I LLLLOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVEEEEEE your books. i have read both twice and cant wait for the movie to come out. i would really like to get in touch with you and ask some questions. i am an aspiring author and need to know some things
on June 4th, 2006 at 7:04 pm
Does anybody here know the name of the third book for the series.I realy Whant know
on June 6th, 2006 at 2:10 pm
I LUV YOU CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI!!!!!!!!
on June 8th, 2006 at 10:15 am
The name of the third book is Empire. *duh*
on June 8th, 2006 at 7:51 pm
Um…I heard the third book is called Empire and it has a green dragon on it. Everyone at my school in the Fan Club said they think Katrina is going to be the third Rider. Which could really happen just like when Murtagh became one after he had been captured. I dont know if ive been much help but I was doing research on it and my teachers at school were helping and we found an article saying he told reporters that he wouldnt reveal it to the public yet so there is not much we can do but hope….
on June 9th, 2006 at 1:27 pm
If this is Christopher Paolini’s real email than I’d really like to talk to you some time about not only your story but about your life and some experiences that you can relate to with the characters that you wrote in your book. I love books but to me, yours is the best because you can make the reader really get into the book and make the reader feel the same emotions as the character. This sounds kind of stupid but in it’s true. E-mail me back please if you can.
on June 10th, 2006 at 4:22 pm
hello, i am your biggest fan and idont know if youve got it yet but ive sent you a letter…my email address is lozzydvj@hotmail.com…please feel free to email me as it would be much appreciated
on June 12th, 2006 at 4:02 pm
Hello. I’m expecially fond of your books, and whoever is calling you J.K. Rowling has their facts all wrong. Your are so much better than her, and she was my favorite author for the longest time. What I’m writing about is to ask the following questions:
What is the name of the next and final book in “The Inheritance Series”?
When, in general, is the book to be published?
Are you going to assist in the production of the film “Eragon”? It would be such a shame if the plot were to be lost and the details overlooked, as in Harry Potter.
Thanks for your time.
Karen M
P.S. It must frusterate you to be an author and have to read all of this improper grammar, as it does me.
on June 14th, 2006 at 11:22 pm
When will the 3rd book come out?
on June 19th, 2006 at 7:56 pm
Hey to all you people who want to know December 15 of this year duh, is when the Eragon movie comes out. The 3rd book is Empire and it comes out in 2008. Bye the way YOU ROCK CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI!!!!!!!!!!!!!! O and bye the way hi to whoever started this and to the guy who’s email this really is. And whoever Karen M. is well your a real Beoch for that last comment. Which bye the way was rude and unnessisary. AND IF I SPELLED ANY OF THAT WRONG SCREW YOU.
if any of you agree with me or have comments my email is kelsey_rae2008@hotmail.com
on June 23rd, 2006 at 11:53 am
Chirstopher Paolini You rock! Thanks for writeing these books. I can’t wait unitll December 5th. I hope that this movie brings in enough money so they can make Eldest into a movie. www.eragonmovie.com/ that is the movie’s website.
on June 23rd, 2006 at 6:15 pm

on June 26th, 2006 at 9:01 pm
E-mail me!!! That’s all you hear…..You have lots of fans that want an e-mail. And if I’m not mistaken that will be a lot of copy and prints to do. I like that kid Zack. He has a cussing problem but he’s right. I have two questions. 1) When will “Empire” (if that is the name) be released?
2) What is the title of the book? I don’t care if you answer these questions. I just saw this site looking it up on google and figured I might as well say-sorry type-something. I’m not really the president. Though I wouldn’t doubt this is what he does all day.
A fan that has no idea what he just wrote,

Im pretty sure the name of the third book is Inheretance but maybe spelt diferent. this may sound dorky but i have read both of your books twice……….. which means i real realy enjoyed them, you are an inspireing author and a good role model for other young authors such as yourself.

I know i must be weird or something making comments right after each other but I am in need of advice. I know I am going to sound like a total idiot and it this isn’t Christopher Paolini’s e-mail I’ll be defamed on ms. But I need help because I’m an amateur at writing. I love your books and before they came out I was dying for a book just like them. Coincidence? I’m not sure…
Sincerely,
Komnoki
(P.S. please don’t defame me!)
on July 15th, 2006 at 1:37 pm
Hi, Cristopher Paolini
I love your books that you have wrote it has even inspired me to write one of my own books. When I am done with it you will get a copy of it.
The other writers that have inspired me, are Bradon Sanderson and Johnthon Stroud. I am looking forward to your new book and I would really like it if you wrote back to me.
Your Friend,
Dylan
(P.S. PLEASE write back, if this is your e-mail. )
on July 15th, 2006 at 5:17 pm
Great. This is simply great. If Christopher Paolini is reading any of this, My question is: Did you know your book was going to be turned into a movie? A videogame? What’s next? You know how the Lord of thing rings stuff got turned into a play? Probably going to happen. In the next decade, WHO KNOWS? Might even get a Eragon cookbook to make elvish stew. And just so all you people know, this isn’t jealousy, its how ridiculuos people are these days…
Sincerely,
Komnoki

Hi this is Amber, uh, just wanted to know how to contact Mr.Paolini at his home address, i wanted to ask him some writing tips, because i love to write stories, and I am currently writing a book and have a few questions, i’m only an 8th grader and need a few hints. If he’s reading this, i hope HE will answer at my e-dress, and i had only wanted to write him a letter, not abut his new book or anything, but to get feed back on the story i am writing, it would help if i got feed back from a real author, and i need the help from someone other than my parents and sister and teachers.
Think you could Mr.Paolini?
Thanks anyway,
Amber
on July 19th, 2006 at 3:19 pm
Hello Mr. Paolini,
I am supposed to write a fantasy story or I will Be held back. I love to read and write and thats why I failed my classes, because I was reading and making stories but my moms fiancee passed away and I havent been able to concentrate so I thought I’d write my favorite author. Im obbsessed with Faries,elves,dragons,bogeys,goblins etc. I want to write a book but my problem is theres so much to explain and I lose track of what it was the story was going to be about. Please E-mail me @ Crazy_Elven23@hotmail.com

i love Mr.Paolini’s books they r so cool
on August 19th, 2006 at 6:37 pm
Dear Mr Paolini,
I Think I kinda know how the trilogy ends. I’m writing because I hope you change it so its not predictable. In the first book, Eragon had a vision of two people - one a woman - boarding a strange boat. One man was wailing on the shore left behind, and there are two dragons in the sky. And a green dragon is supposed to be on the cover of the last book out, and I think its going to be Arya. Galbatorix is the man on the shore .
If so, can you pack a punch in the next book so it’s not predictable.
Love Katie
on September 10th, 2006 at 10:37 pm
Dear someone who hopefully responds to me,
Any Eragon fans email me at freakyfeepits@mail.com Thanks you’re all awsome! Bye!
Hey! This is Amelia! I wanted to say I love Eragon, Eldest, and Paolini better finished the last book soon! Sorry, take your time, I want it to be a really awsome book to make me satisfied. If anyone will actually let me mail Christopher, I made a clip from Eldest with my friends, I think he will at least find it amusing.

Atra esterni ono thelduin, Mor’ranr lifa unin hjarta onr, Un dunevarinya ono varda. Lol, if this is Christopher Paolini(please have it be), i am addicted to the inheritance series! I’ve read both books and spend hours at a time doing so. I will not try to be much of a bother but i was just wanting to ask some things. I was hoping you would email me at ttac_catt@hotmail.com.
It may seem strange to say but, Vel einradhin iet ai Shur’tugal,i would post my email anytime to talk to you!!! I hope with all my otho, that you, Shur’tugal, will write back.

I accidently put will care, i meant with, Sorry:)
on October 4th, 2006 at 3:39 am
first & foremost, i love the inheritance books & i’m a huge fan.
on another note…….some people come across this site while still reading the books, haven’t finished them yet, or are between eragon & eldest. i think it’s totally unfair of you guys to give away endings and plot lines w/o spoiler warnings. how would you feel if you accidently found out the ending of a great series you’ve been reading? stop doing things like that or at least have the sense to have some kind of spoiler warning.
also, i was wondering if there are plans of another trilogy related to the inheritance series?
on October 11th, 2006 at 8:26 pm
when is the third book coming?
also make the book longer so i cant read them in a week it makes me bored out of my mind thank you and im not crazy i loooove ur books and keep them comeing
on October 25th, 2006 at 12:50 am
So i know it’s like the 24th of october and most of you might have looked in the new 2nd book. It gives you a chapter of the 3rd book and the cover of it! The book is called ‘Gleadon’ and theres a drgon looking to the right. It has like a funny looking beard thing on it too..so yeah.
on October 25th, 2006 at 12:52 am
it’s also suppose to come out in the fall of 2006…..i don’t think Mr. Paolini is finished though, but thats what he said on his web site.
P.S.:i will probably never go on this wedsite again so don’t ask me questions
on October 25th, 2006 at 12:54 am
o Yeah, for those people who say it’s Empire shut up cause i reserved a copy of the 3rd book and he emailed me the cover of it ( name was on the cover of the 3rd book)just go to his website=(Paolini)
on October 29th, 2006 at 3:35 pm

yall are so freakin stupid this probaly isnt his real e-mail address. for one it doesnt seem that he is writing back. second of all the 3rd book will probaly be called empire as all of you have said. i have a good feeling about this because eragon and eldest both started with an e so thats mabye a hint right there. the third book will probaly come out in summer 2007 because this book will probaly be longer than the other 2 and it takes aawhile to write a freaking book so get of his back. also the people who say it shouldnt be made into movie u are ******* stupid. i for one love dragons and they havent made very many drago n movies or games so i think the movie should be made so suck it. also just vin case this is christopher paolini keep on keeping on. also this zach guy makes me ******* laugh my *** of when he makes fun of yall. grow the **** up peace out

I LOVE Eragon & Eldest and I’m looking forward to the film even though I didn’t get to work on it but I am waiting for the 3rd book, BRING IT OUT NOW PLEASE!
I am disapointed that Arya does not have black hair or pointed ears as is in the book and ALL Elvesshould have pointed ears! It’s thier trade mark!
Arya is my FAV character in the books which I adore by the way.
P.S. I agree with what Tal says! They should do the film cause people can go & see it then they might by the books to find out what happens in next film!
on November 15th, 2006 at 4:57 pm
christopher poalini everbdy knows that the thrd rider will be RORAN. yuo guys are all idiots
on November 15th, 2006 at 7:46 pm
tell me JTI WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT RORAN WILL BE THE NEXT RIDER! no one knows for sure because there is a numerous list of people in the book that could become the next rider like arya or nasuada or howevre you spell her name but yes roran is a possibility. the only reason i have doubts is that it would be kind of corny to have cousins be both dragon riders. i know that murtagh is eragons brother and he is a dragon rider but both him and eragon are strong willed unlike roran who just wants to find katrina, marry her and settle down. the most likely choice for the next rider is arya and i will tell you why if you rember in eragon eragon as a dream at the beginnig of the book, possibily a premonition i will show you want it said be right back…………………………………………………………..alright chapter name deathwatch beginnig of chapter, he watched as a group of people on proud horses approached a lonely river. many had silver hair and carried tall lances. a strange, fair ship waited for them, shining under a bright moon. the figures slowly boarded the vessel; two of them, taller than the rest, walked arm in arm. their faces were obscured by cowls, but he could tell that one was a woman. they stood on the deck of the ship and faced the shore. a man stood alone on the pepple beach, the only one who hadnt boarded the ship. he threw back his head and let out a long, aching cry. as it faded, the ship glided down the river, without a breeze or oars, out into the flat, empty land. the vision clouded, but just before it disappeared, eragon glimpsed two dragons in the sky.” know this is what i think it means, eragon and arya leave alagaesia forever (keep in mind eragon is supposedly destined to leave this place) with other elves. the man onthe beach could be a lot of people like murtagh, galbotrix, or roran but probaly not roran because eragon would have noticed him. he has never sen galbotrix and probaly didnt recognize murtagh later on in the book because he probaly forgot about the dream as for the 2 dragons in the sky saphira and aryas green male dragon. now i could be wrong but why would christopher paolini but it in the book. any body got somethin better go ahead and show me up *****.
p.s. sorry if i put some plot spoilers down like murtagh being eragons brother but **** you if you didnt know that already thats pretty sad i found out in the first book plus if you havent read both books your really not worthy of being ont his site know are you.
p.s. again hey tiffant thinks for the commit i mean come whoever doesnt whant the movie made can suck my hairy nut sack because the world needs a good dragon movie and eragon is gonna be one ******* good dragon movie and if its not hey its still a god story with dragons in it right peace out
on November 15th, 2006 at 7:49 pm
yo tiffany sorry for spellin the name wrong peace out
on November 15th, 2006 at 8:45 pm
hello, im a little bit confused but i hope that this is how to send an e-mail to you(if you are christopher paulini)
I honestly couldn’t say that i’m your best fan because i don’t have all your books. Whenever i think about the inheretance books i get dis apointed because i know that there are only three books. i wish there were more. anyhow, i did not write to tell you off my complaints, i wanted to say that if you can email me back(which you probably won’t because this might not be how to email you and you probably won’t bother to read my email) i’m an amateur(i love that word…)at writing and i was wondering if you made up the shade, because i wanted to put one into my book. but if you did make it up then ill be plagerizing or watever. (my book will probably never be published coz them publishers will be like ” i aint piblishin no book fer no snot nosed lil kid”) also i want you to no that i think your books are so darn good! i cant wate to get my greedy hands on the 3rd book…anyhow, you probably won’t read this cuz you will think, “just another wannabe writer i wont read his email” no offense or enything, but i like joking around. but supposing you do read it, tell me if ill be plagerizing or watever if i use the dhade in my book.
p.s. by the way, my name is irish…but im not irish at all… anyhow…
PLEASE write me back. come on man im on my knees and begging! (i told you before i like joking around)
p.p.s. plz write me back
on November 21st, 2006 at 1:32 pm
Hey!
I just wanted to tell you that even though your books are entertaining, I think that it is really pathetic that you basically stole all of your ideas from other books. Many of the ideas in your book are taken from other books that I have read. I realize that much of this probably came because you were only 15 when your wrote this book. If you write anymore PLEASE remember to come up with at least some of your own ideas. Sorry, don’t mean to be the rain cloud on your sunny day, but your books really should have had a works cited sheet and internal citation. It was that bad. Keep writing though. I am sure that you will improve with time!
on November 22nd, 2006 at 1:39 pm
yo claire roberts you know that is so rude if he really did take stuff from other books what where they i mean sure it had elves and dwarves etc. but so what so did lord of the rings and so did alot of other books also it had magic well so did alot of other books also the dragons again alot of other books and movies had alot of dragons everybody copies everybody. its not not like theres another book out there that is exactly like them and if there is then let me know but has of right know you have no proof showining us or telling us that he actually copied someones work so take that and shove it
on November 26th, 2006 at 2:37 pm
plz will u tell me when book 3 of inheritance is coming out i herd it will come out on the 15th of december but i am not sure
on November 27th, 2006 at 6:03 pm
So Tal
Where do you go to school? They must not teach sentance structure. Or spelling and manners for that matter. Sure there are other books that have elfs and dwarves, I won’t argue with that. But they all had original plots. (That means that the storyline was different if you didn’t know.) There are a lot of books that have the same storyline as the Inheritance Trilogy. And those books came out before Eragon and Eldest. I don’t mean that they are not good works of writing, they just lack in creativity and such. Next time if you are going to argue against some one’s opinion, find some ground for your argument. Thanks for your feed back though. It is a lot of fun to see what others think. I would love to hear from you again. Just make sure that you at least spell check your next message!
on November 27th, 2006 at 9:16 pm
Dear Christopher Paolini,
If this is in fact you reading this (because you were wondering what obnoxious things people had been reading this, or if you wanted to see what fan mail you have received) hello. I probably could not say truthfully that I am your biggest fan…maybe I could say that in the Midwest…I’ll just leave it in Cook County. I am your biggest fan…in Cook County, IL. And, I am trying to write a novel. If you are reading this, please email me at brwneyedgrl32807@netscape.net to ask me for the website - I don’t want people seeing the book until I’m done (besides you) - and I will send it to you. If you want to see some of my other works, you can go to www.annefranktree.com, go to “Be Inspired” near the bottom, and go through the pages until you come to “How I was Inspired by Anneliese Marie Frank, by Caroline Margarete Dost,” - wordy title, I know! - and feel free to read. Also, I have an “Eragon” role-playing website at www.freewebs.com/shadeslayersrealm where I am Murtagh - you can check that out and maybe even be a character if you want! Thanks a lot!!
Caroline

The wind cut throungh his clothes like daggers ripping through skin while the darkness engulfed the cave. He slowly reached out to his left to find her. Not even she could survive that fall. His fingertips were frozen and he couldn’t fell a thing
This is pointless he thought and gritting his teeth in pain, he released a small jet of blue light that quickly faded away but not before he saw her bside him. Just lying there…sprawled across the jagged rocks. Her left arm stuck out at an odd angle. The wind was tearing through her sleek balck hair to reveal a thin trickle of dark liquid slowly creeping down her smooth skin.
on November 30th, 2006 at 12:47 pm
Why Ashley? What was the point in that? And if you haven’t noticed by now, this isn’t his email. It’s a site and to get some interesting stuff said, thay’ve put it as his email address to get people to visit it!
Even if it was his email address, why would he advertise it to the whole world?
He would make a website himself for people to contack him!
on December 13th, 2006 at 2:11 pm
Mr. Paolini, I’ve been writing a story and was wondering if you would be willing to read part of it. You probably won’t see this since your so busy with stuff but I would really like you to read it and tell me what you think about it. I’m kind of like you with the whole writing-the-story-in-my-teen-years kind of thing. anyway, please contact me if you can. you should be able to get my email address from this website. thank you
on December 13th, 2006 at 2:22 pm
I was just reading some of the earlier blogs and i have something to say.
I think that Chris is a great writer and that, although the elves and dwarves are not really orginal, the story is. Who would have thought up the names like Arya, Murtagh, Hrothgar, Sphira and the other names. plus all the places that Eragon went and the people he interacted with. The maps that he made were more detailed then new writers care to do. When he writes, i can actually place myself in the scene and look around. I know how hard it is to come up with 10 names, and he came up with dozens of names for three different books. That is VERY hard to do. I think that anyone that thins Christopher Paolini is a bad writer or doesn’t come up with original ideas should have their head examined. if that was true then any writer in the world is just like him. every idea that is out on the market is just recycled from something that they saw or heard. anyway… that’s how i feel.
on December 15th, 2006 at 4:15 pm
Hello. I would just like to say i don’t fully understand this site and i assume with the title above “This is Christopher Paolini and this is his email” lol. Sorry for the jokes i amuse myself at time
. But anyhow, i would just like to stop by and say that i enjoy your writing. I felt connected to the Characters and spent all of my spare time getting completely hypnotized by Eragon. I even remember finally reading it (after seeing it around quite a bit) and i was lost in your world of Eragon in only the first 30 or so pages. I can remember putting down the book on my bed and heading for dinner, but wanting to rush so i could continue to read it. It has been a year since i’ve read your book, and have still yet to finish Eldest. Ironic it only takes me a couple of days to finish Eragon but a year to get past page 38 on Eldest. Lol, i had to take a break and do things i had been meaning to do then never found the time. I know you get a lot of this stuff quite often, but i don’t normally like certain actors, bands, Television shows or know a lot about anyone that’s “famous” but you however, i find you intreging and i love how young you were when you wrote such an inspiring trilogy. I’ve wanted to be a writer since i was in elementary school so i believe that is where my fondness of you comes from. I do love your work. I was so inspired i wrote a research paper over you. Well (and i know you’ve gotten this quite often from critics) but i compared the Inheiritance Trilogy to Star Wars (i personally prefer dragons to aliens) but you get the idea. I really have no idea where i’m headed with all that i’m telling you, like i said i don’t normally do this whole “star struck” or whatever thing. But i would like to add that you are very talented and i LOVE your work. I don’t really have any questions for you or anything like that i’m just sharing my feelings towards your book and such. I’m headed to see the movie tonight, and i’ve heard it will not meet my excited expectations i’ve had for it since i first heard about it near a year ago when i was writing my research paper. I also have read you had nothing to do with the script writing and so i see that this is gonig to be mucho disappointing! But i’m not going to let that ruin my love for your book, though i’m sure it would have been mucho better had you written it. Well i believe i’ve taken up plenty of your time, I know you’ve got plenty to do, more fans to meet and greet and reply to. I don’t expect a reply at all or anytime soon, i just wanted to write my only favorite author, and will probably send a letter to the above address that was given. I would like to ask one question, if you ever happen to head to texas to have a book signing could you possibly let me know, i’d love to meet you in person and have you sign the copies of your book that i have 
. I hope you are having a good time in New York signing and being famous! smiling continuously and getting people to gravel over you, not sure how it’d compare to being an actor or such but i’m sure it’s wonderful for the nerd world, lol. I can’t really talk since i am one 
. Well i hope all goes good for you and i look forward to finishing Eldest, and reading Book III. Thank you again for your time. 
also Merry Christmas
and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
yet another fan,
*Chelsea*

Hi does anyone know how can I contact: Christopher Paolini. Please let me know… It is very, VERY important. MY email is: gunsmith@net.hr
on December 18th, 2006 at 5:40 pm
Anyone who has seen the eragon movie knows that it was completely ruined by whatever idiot director they had. I just went and saw it and it was HORRIBLE. you could have seriously written another whole book on what they left out in the movie! There was no Hadarac Desert, no twins, no star rose, no Solumbum, no elves, no dwarves, no Hrothgar, and no baby that Eragon blesses!!! IT WAS RUINED. Thank you.
on December 19th, 2006 at 2:45 am
I agree with you zeke. that movie was completely ruined by they stupid idiots that made it. The Razac were terrible and Brom was dead by the time eragon went to rescue arya. plus arya should have had black hair and what elf was there they didn’t have pointy ears. they didn’t even try to make them pointy. i liked the actor that played eargon and they did a great job on sapphira (i keep forgetting how to spell her name. lol).
on December 20th, 2006 at 6:45 pm
Both Eragon and Eldest are available at the Austin Memorial Library in Cleveland, Texas. I have enjoyed reading the tale of Eragon. Our patrons and I, patiently, await the trilogy’s completion. We are also excited to view the movie at the cinema. The movie has encouraged those still reading Eragon to hurry and finish reading the book prior to seeing the movie! We are thankful for the writings. I am grateful for the Random House address of Christopher Paolini that was offered in earlier postings. Please contact the library when/if doing book signings in Texas. We would like to have you visit the teenagers and children in our community. Sincerely, Dyan
on December 21st, 2006 at 6:52 pm
Hi, I have read Eragon and I am almost done with the Eldest. I would really like to know when the third book will be coming out! I love all of your books and the movie was awesome!

I adore the books but the film was a complete waste of money.
I rate the book at 100% and the film at 10% if that!
They cut out half the characters, most of the book and switched it for shots of them traveling ova da land with music in da background!
Don’t evan get me started on all the things they changed with Arya!
People who have read da book & seen da film will know what I mean!
The film ‘could have’ been the like Lord of the Rings this year but it does NOT even come close rivaling Harry Potter (In my view only!)
I await to see the how they can ruin the next film and how they will fit it to the ending of da 1st film!

Dear Mr. Paolini,
I heard this was a website where I could email you. If you are reading this, this is my first actual(I hope) email message to a star. I love your books so much, and I know you probably get that enough, but know this: I am a true fan of your books. I told my whole family and friends about it, and my friends gossip about it all the time. But I only have two things I have to ask: What did you think of your movie? I’m sorry to say, but I was not very fond of it. I would like to tell you more of what I think, so that leads to my next question/plead. Please, Please, email me! I am a true fan and you have turned me on to dragons!
Please, sir, I mus’nt wait another second.
May your swords stay sharp!
P.S, I would like to hear more about Bjartskular and Agretlam

I worship the books and I’m slowly turning insane as I can only keep rereading the two books until Christopher brings out the next book!
And although the film is complete ****…it’s the film so I’ve seen that quite a few times by now and I’ve been able to create a file bout everything the film as changed! I MEAN EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m going insane Chris! Bring out the next book NOW!!!!!!
I can’t wait til summer!!!!!!!!
P.S. I think everyone who actually visits this site SHOULD know by now that it is NOT his email address, you freaks!

Hi everybody. I’m writing from Hungary where Fox made some scenes of the movie Eragon. I’m not writing to Chris Paolini, ’cause I guess it’s not likely to be his emailing address. I’m writing to you, the funs of the BOOK like me.
I wanna talk about the movie… I’ve just seen it yesterday, after finishing not just the first, but both books which are as professional as the best fantasy books a fun can read nowadays (LOTR or HP I mean, for example). So, I’ve seen the movie yesterday, and I keep thinking about HOW COULD SUCH A BULLSHIT be done from the great story of Paolini??? How could Paolini make such a contract with 20th Century Fox, the studio which I’ve thought being one of the bests until yesterday, that enabled to ruin completely the original story? Jesus Christ, can you imagine what Peter Jackson (the director of LOTR) could make out of the book? The better would be to not continue making the next movie based on that ****.
However, the BOOKS are great… I can’t wait till the next one comes out. I hope Paolini gonna think twice before contracting to picturize his stories in the future…

Hi, uhm, if this truly is Christopher Paolini.
I was just wondering when your new book was coming out?
I have really really enjoyed reading book one and two and I’m getting really anxious to read book three.
For a couple days all I could do was read them. I could not put them down, they were amazing!
If you would be so kind as to tell me when book three is coming out I would be sooooo grateful! =)
Thank you!

Personally , I love your books. But, I think they seem copied. I started writing my own book before this even came out it’s about a dragon egg, love revenge. Similar stuff. Some stuff in your books seem copied from LOTR and Starwars Other people on chatrooms also agree. They really are good, but you really don’t deserve to be the next JK Rowling. No offence though. I can’t wait for your next book. This probably doesn’t make much since. But, most people who are in collage write about stuff just like this.
on January 31st, 2007 at 11:21 am
Things from the Eragon, and Eldest are way better that LOTR. THere is no comparison.
on January 31st, 2007 at 9:45 pm
Caty,
I feel that I must disagree about what you said about Mr. Paolini not deserving being the next J.K.Rowling. In short, he does. And come on get with it, sure he may or may not have gotten some ideas fron other books but to say he does not deserving being the next J.K.Rowling is a bit much.
Also where did you get your ideas from? Don’t say that they just came to you.
on February 1st, 2007 at 12:18 pm
Nate & Caty,
Nate i agree that someone has to get ideas from some kinda of sourse. I have been writting a book for about four years and is nowhere close to being done. For one reason, I haven’t got any ideas. So i took some from every kind of book i could find, changed them until they fitted nicely with the story.
Caty,
Christopher has been out of school longer than any of use. Sence he was fifteen, he’s been coming up with ideas. Any author would tell you that they’ve gotten there ideas from others. I would know, i’ve meet with J.K. Rowling, she has been getting ideas from every one and everything. So yeah he sort of does deserve the title.
Your Truly,
Kenneth Gustin

When will the third book be released in Australia
on February 4th, 2007 at 6:02 pm
Just a note before my rant, I’m looking for a debate so don’t think I’m out to personally get any of you or Mr. Paolini, I simply love debating…
I am afraid I have to disagree completely with Kenneth. Lord of the Rings invented the modern fantasy genre. Paolini owes more to Tolkien than anyone else.
And as for borrowing ideas, I agree, people borrow ideas all the time, but usually people twist ideas to make them new. It is one thing to have a story like Star Wars, its another to copy numerous key plot points from Star Wars.
Not to offend the people here, but I am mostly interested in Eragon and Eldest so I can see how someone writes when they are my age. I have been working on a novel since I was ten and I’m currently sixteen. I can clearly see shadows of my work as a ten year old in Paolini’s work as a fifteen year old, showing me that most writers go through a process. I infringed on as many ideas as Paolini did when I was little, but I’ve grown beyond that.
If you want inspiration for your stories, find the roots. My sources for ideas are usually history or mythology. Relying on other peoples books for ideas is weak and immediately leads people to connect the stories together. You can argue that Paolini’s books are nothing like Star Wars, but the fact that it can even be brought up is a problem. Lucas himself was inspired by Lord of the Rings and Dune, but the story was unique enough that they have become cultural icons that have helped to define the society we live in. Despite Lucas’s vivid borrowings, his story is unique. Paolini’s really isn’t.
Now this is the real test. I truly desire an intelligent debate with some one on Paolini’s books. If all that I get in response is cries of my bias and stupidty, then Paolini’s case will simply be damaged by your own bias. I have found very few people willing to argue intelligently and I would like to do so. I don’t hate Paolini, I simply do not like his books.
And one last comment about what Kenneth Justin said. I’m still a Junior, but I’ve been coming up wit ideas for years. Being out of school doesn’t suddenly mean one can have ideas, and as for borrwing ideas, you are certainly correct, everyone does it. The question is not do people borrow ideas, the question should be on the mater of degree. There is a line of borrowing ideas that should not be crossed. One should use the ideas of others to formulate one’s own. However, one’s ideas should never hinge solely on the thoughts of others.
We’ll, I’m burned out.
-A random person who accidentally came across this Forum and understands full well this is meant to ask Mr. Paolini questions, but decided it be more fun to ask some fans and hope for a response from Paolini himself
on February 6th, 2007 at 9:58 am
OMG!!!!!!! I love you sooooo much. Your writing is fantastic!! I can not wait for the 3rd book to come out!! When will it?? Please write back!! You are soo amazing. Mom mom is a writer too but u are my idol!!!! The movie I can’t wait to see and what is the name of the third book?? Please tell me!!! Or is it a surprise?? I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!
Love you biggest fan–

People just don’t pay attention anymore do they? It is all about the healines, lol.
Thanks for the professional address!
on February 7th, 2007 at 6:01 pm
hi, if this really is Christpoher Paolini then im sorry to bother you (youre probably fed up with getting obnoxious fanmail) but i was wondering how you thoutght up your dragon names. I’m writing a book and your books are the best written that ive ever seen so i thoutght that you might be able to help me. Also, remember the elven horse Folkvir that eragon rides to the place where Saphira and Gladr fight (in book 2)? Well, how come Eragon telles him to stay there and then rides Saphira back to Oromis? He totally forgets about Falkvir!!!!! Then you never see him again, whats up with that?
Sorry to bother you,

Forseti, there is a reason why I wrote what I did above. It was essentially bait, or more accurately, an experiment. You see I have read that Eragon fans are notorious for employing circular arguments and employing mostly pathos in their appeals. While I expect this of most people in the world, on account of the pathetic degree of polarization in our society, I desired to find at least one fan of Eragon who would be willing to debate outright. It is your right to love Eragon, it is my right to question it.
Hoever, when you immediately run to argumentum ad hominem, where you simply attack the debator, rather than address the topic, you lose all credibility. If you truly sought to defend Paolini, you would have replied intelligently, rather than relying solely on pathos and immediately running to nonrational appeals. Need I remind you Paolini stresses the importance of logic in his stories? Pathos is the opposite of logic. If you are trying to represent Paolini, you have, thus far, done a poor job. Even though I disagree with Paolini on the matter of the importane of logic, employing it is something I would have expected of true diehard fans.
Perhaps I am fooling myself. Shall I take a wild guess and assume most people here are young? As in tweens, or early teens? I myself am a mere 16, but the way most people here aruge, and the level of grammar and coherent statements thrown into the comments is appalling. When I go onto chatrooms for Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter, people disagree, they also argue like intelligent individuals, mindful of the others beliefs, yet unrelenting in their argument. I never wanted any of you to agree with me, it is just the opposite, I only wanted you to argue with me. Replying with, what shall assume to be, snide remarks about my intelligence does not put your own intelligence in favorable light.
Again, I am probably fooling myself. These are the results I expected from this little escapade, but I shall wait a little while and check back.If I get an actual argument, you will have made my day, if I get nothing in reply or more snide remarks, you shall have dimmed my overall view of humanity. Then again, fans of Eragon are probably not a good sample for the rest of humanity. (Not bashing around Eragon, but most people in the world can’t read, so it is probably not fair to exclude them, and many are also too poor to buy the book).
Hmm, I probably should feel guilty, what with preying on you here like this, but I’m, having fun writing this, so I’ll put ethics aside and wait for you reply.
Vale! Lehitraot! Ila lika!

PS For extra credit, I put in a rather large number of logical fallcies (along with typos) in my rant above. See if you can spot them out and yell at me about them.
on February 10th, 2007 at 11:44 am
Hi, I don’t know who’s all going to see this but I hope Christopher Paolini is one of them. This is as close to being able to say just this one thing to you.
My name is Kari and I’m thirteen. I read your book Eragon a few years ago and I loved it so much. It was one of the books that made me want to start to write. When I heard last year that it would be made a movie I couldn’t wait, I was so excited.
But when the movie came out and I saw it, I was so disapointed.
Everything was all wrong, the movie was too short and they left out too much. Eragon and Arya’s relationship was too "Nice" and Brom didn’t teach Eragon very much.
I really do hope you get this and read it. I want you to know that I thought the movie could have been something so great. Who ever changed your story made a really huge mistake.
You were such an inspiration to me. But the movie was a real downer.
Kari

Sean– I think you misread Forseti’s posts. I don’t believe he was talking about you at all–merely the incredible amount of people who keep replying here in hopes of finding Mr. Paolini despite the protestations of the owner of this email and website.
I think I know of a place where you can find the intelligent discussions you are craving regarding the Inheritance trilogy. it can be found here: www.anti-shurtugal.com/
Best wishes on your novel.

Does anyone know when the Thrid book is comking out, cause i have like eveything Eragon, and im goin insane. And does anyone know what it’s goin to be called?
THank You
on February 12th, 2007 at 4:37 pm
Thank you a billion Lyr. Thanks, and don’t worry Kenneth, the third book will probably come out this year. The hunch of course is that it is called "Empire", but waiting is half of the fun.

To tell you the truth i dont think the new book is coming out this year. I got the first book in 6th grade, (im in 9th) and the newwst one, Eldest, just came out this last year. So i have a feeling that we’ll be waiting a while. Otherwise, if he started writing as soon he was finished with Eldest, then maybe it would be out soon. Which i seem to believe that he couldn’t cause he’s alot more buisness now then when he first started.
Thank You.

Hi,
I’m a really big fan.I’m a writer myself.I want to write a novel but I just don’t have the patients because I’m only in 6th grade.I write poetry because it’s short and quick.I just know I’ll write a novel someday though.
Can’t wait for the next book,

Hey kenneth, what language is that in?
on February 19th, 2007 at 4:05 pm
This is for emerald, you can write your story but you can’t publish it.That would just be cheating off another author.Also, I agree that Murtagh’s not bad and that he’s only trapped with no way out.
on February 20th, 2007 at 6:42 pm
no one has been on here since yesterday. that is so frusterating.i’m not using any cps because i type really slow.i’m a finger typer. i wish that sean guy was on here. i kind of like debating.
on February 20th, 2007 at 6:45 pm
oh, i forgot, did any of you notice that, at the top, it says created in humor by that elliott kid
on February 20th, 2007 at 8:20 pm
Yeah, read the post kids. I’m not Paolini, but you can write to his agent if you’d like.
on February 21st, 2007 at 11:56 am
Katie,
Hey Kaie, that is the Elvish language. If you want i can send you a copy of it. I created it, and sent it to The Grey Company, but that was back in 98′. But i used it quiet alot. And if this was creeted by this Elliot, I would try and screw with us, cause us hard core Eragon fans would likely kick your arse, no offence, but its the truth.
Quel Re,
Good Day
