Mr. Paolini is now twenty-one years old and lives with his family in Paradise Valley, Montana. He has just finished the second book in his trilogy, called “Eldest”, and has already released a best seller, and the first in the trilogy, named “Eragon." His books are about a boy who perseveres through countless adventures and is confronted with many challenges, but never backs down. The books he writes are also a way to show that anything can happen if you try and try again.

Christopher Paolini got the idea for his trilogy after he graduated from high school when he was fifteen. He spent many a day planning what he would write in his trilogy, even though it was a great endeavor to take on such a challenge for his first book. He persevered through the struggle and came out with great profit. The profit was not the money (even though there was a lot), but in the knowledge gained and the inspiration wrought into the hearts of many. He also found out that editing isn’t that fun.

I think that this author has caused many people to become more confident in pursuing what they want to do. He has given many people a fun read, and will give us naught but more to enjoy. When Mr. Paolini started writing, he did not think that anything great would happen with his books, but in a way, his writing came true. He writes about a boy who is poor but hard-working, yet he turns into something great and powerful. Christopher Paolini has mimicked this story, and has shown us that anyone can turn into anything. All you have to do is try.
