Christopher Paolini wrote Eragon because he wanted to create a story that combined his love for fantasy literature with his fascination for dragons. He began writing Eragon at a young age, and it eventually grew into a bestselling series known as the Inheritance Cycle.
Tolkein. Heavily. He credits him in his books. Among the various accusations of plagiarism Tolkein ranks quite highly on the list of authors that Paolini allegedly rips off. The fourth Star ars film is also pretty high on that list, as the plot of Eragon reads incredibly similarly to it, along with many film critics making the comparisson upon the release of the film. But, Star Wars rips off The Hidden Fortress, so the credit for that story just keeps on going back.
He graduated High School at the age of 15, and had nothing else to do. He was frustrated at the lack of quality fantasy novels so he wrote on himself.
