Kippurbird

Kippurbird (also known as Kippur) is the author of the Eragon Sporkings site and has analyzed several bad books chapter by chapter. He is also co-author of the Urban Fantasy in progress Death God Rising.


 * Eragon
 * Eldest
 * Brisingr (That particular sporking took two years to finish!)
 * Touching Spirit Bear
 * The Fifth Sorceress
 * The Da Vinci Code
 * Anita Blake: Danse Macabre
 * Maximum Ride
 * Twilight (Note: It's not on the actual site, but can be found on his LiveJournal.)


 * Acceptable Targets: The bad writing itself.
 * Accentuate the Negative: In a good way.
 * Deadpan Snarker: Kippur.
 * Drinking Game: The sporkings of the first few chapters of Brisingr tally the drinks you should take if playing.
 * Follow the Leader: Kippurbird has a handful of other sporkers on his site, who review a variety of books. He is also very encouraging about it.
 * Fridge Logic: Lampshaded whenever it shows up.
 * Ho Yay: Kippur makes sure to point out whenever Eragon has "slashy moments" with his brother and cousin. And then there's the Meat Series..
 * MST: Obviously.
 * The Nicknamer: Kippur himself when it comes to unimportant and/or uninteresting characters. ("Dwarf" anyone?)
 * Rooting for the Empire: Kippur often wishes death on Eragon and frequently points out that Galbatorix is a good ruler compared to some of what the Varden do, like executing people who disobey their superiors.
