'Half-Blood Prince' has been knocked off the top spot at Amazon by Christopher Paolini's 'Eldest' (he also wrote the record-breaking book 'Eragon').

Quote:

"At least I'm young enough to get through the trilogy before I die," Paolini, now 21, told Reuters. He still lives with his parents in Montana, where he writes seven days a week.

Paolini's parents self-published Eragon and took him on a tour of schools, where he dressed up in medieval costume to promote the book. Eragon caught the eye of publishing giant Random House, and filming has just started in Hungary on a movie of the book, with a cast that includes Jeremy Irons and John Malkovich.
