LOL. I actually have that, and my youngest lad read that only.

Nothing to do with his skill level either, as he has read all the Harry Potter books and loved them, and a good few years later he has just read the first couple of Witcher books, and loves them a lot. He is admittedly at this point though, not much of a reader. He was good reading The Ranger's Apprentice books there for a few years, but that stopped a good while ago. He's 23 and heavily into gaming. One day he will realize what he has got right under his nose ... my huge library ... his older brother has already started to.

By comparison, his older sister hasn't read any of Tolkien's work, but read and loved the Eragon series, and has read a good number of other fantasy books. She is enamored of the movies too ... though a bit disappointed with how The Hobbit movies went. It seems that pacing is everything for her though, as she did give up on the Harry Potter books, while lapping up all the movies.
