Isabellkya is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
I have read both Eragon and Eldest; as well as having seen the movie.
I personally extremely disliked the movie adaptation.. basically it sucked. When I read books, and then see a movie adaptation (if there is one); I tend to be a stickler for details.. whether minor or major. I understand that some changes need to be made to fit it to the screen; but when the movie is changed so much to where it barely resembles the book.. then there tends to be a problem. I enjoyed the books.. but I have read so many fantasy series' with the same over all plot.. that it was almost a bit redundant.

With the LotR, the main storyline was kept from the books to the movie; so when I saw the Eragon movie, I was pretty unhappy.
