He has tons on prequels and expansions of the Eragon universe planned to further his career!

It's a thing.

Has anyone ever noticed that if you lower the value of a single letter by 1, "Eragon" becomes "Dragon"? :P

No, I never did. The letter change adds a syllable and shifts the emphasis around, so that could've helped disguise it.

... well I can't lol at you for making an unjust comparison. Tolkien is boring :tired
(I got a book of old norse poems translated by him, and its sadly underwhelming)

Tolkien's stuff is awesome, and his writing is well-crafted and poetic, but alas a lot of the "and then we kept walking through this region while having small talk and singing folk songs" is boring.
