/lit/ - Literature

There is literally nothing wrong with the Eragon series, certainly not in comparison with the rest of YA fantasy. There's nothing wrong with having the same plot as Star Wars (and the similarities aren't really as substantial as they're made out to be). There aren't really that many coming-of-age plots anyway.

/lit/ only hates this because they think their oh-so-clever-and-sophisticated writing is more deserving of money and are salty that some loser managed to sell a 'worse' book series, while they trudge home from university to a pile of unpublished manuscripts.

Hint: the objective is to get people to buy your book and this guy succeeded.
