Eragon himself is simply one of the least likable "heroes" ever...and honestly, he's not even very heroic.
The whole trilogy is the kind of book you send to a publisher and get sent back as rejected...by every publisher out there. Then you try again for a few year until something WORTHWHILE is sent off...then a few novel later, you come back to your original creation, take whatever is good in there, and then thank whatever you worship that the thing as a whole was rejected. Sadly, I guess the publisher wanted to capitalize on Paolini's age.
