* Christopher Paolini apparently feels the need to use a thesaurus at all times with the ''Literature/InheritanceCycle'', sparking copious mixed opinions from readers. Some find his writing captivating and interesting, while others basically write it off as a load of crap. Either way, you can't argue that he follows this trope to the letter, and younger readers may want to keep a dictionary open while traversing his prose.
