Since you like Eragon you'll definitely love the Dragonjouster series by Mercedes Lackey.Imagine dragons in ancient Egypt!The books are Joust,Alta and Sanctuary.
Hunger, anger, and hatred are constants for young Vetch, rendered a brutally mistreated and overworked serf by the Tian conquest of his homeland. But everything improves when a Tian jouster requisitions Vetch to become the first serf ever to be a dragon boy. His training is intense, and his duty clear-cut: to tend his jouster, Ari, and his dragon, Kashet. That is only the beginning.The rest of the books are about how he gets a dragon of his own,his escape to Alta,how the war between the two kingdoms is stopped etc.

Mercedes Lackey's Take a Thief is the tale of Skif, a young orphan reminiscent of Oliver Twist, making his way in the knock-and-tumble neighborhood between two of Haven's outermost walls. Skif is intelligent, good-hearted and creative enough to forage up three meals a day in a place where food is scarce and kindness almost unheard of. After a chain of events leave him homeless, Skif lands in the lair of Bazie, an Faginish ex-mercenary who trains thieves...until he is "Chosen" by one of Valdemar's magical horses and becomes a Herald serving the Queen.

Belgariad book series by David Eddings.The first book is 'Pawn of Prophecy'.The story begins in aunt Pol's kitchen at Faldor's farm where Garion is being raised. The main theme of the books is about how it is to grow up and to break up with one's old life. From his safe life at the farm, Garion is being thrown into a new life controlled by a thousand of years old prophecy - the prophecy of his and the world's destiny...

Codex Alera is a fantasy book series by Jim Butcher. The first book in the series is Furies of Calderon.The series chronicles the life of a young man named Tavi in the empire of Alera on the world of Carna. Every Aleran of every nation and caste, except for Tavi, has some degree of command over elemental forces or spirits called furies. The story takes place after the rise of a fictional empire similar to Rome where the First Lord must stave off in-fighting amongst the nobility of a now decadent empire and wield the throne through sheer force of strength and will. Tavi, trapped by fate in the midst of conflicts at home and abroad, must use all of his intelligence to save Alera.

The Time-Master trilogy By Louise Cooper.(review from Amazon)The books are 'The Initiate',The Outcast and The Master.It tells the story of Tarod a fascinating anti-hero, evolving throughout the series from a loyal disciple of Order to the God of Chaos that is his true heritage, with the repeated examination of his humanity thrown into the mix.

Artemis Fowl book series by Eoin Colfer is about teen age criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl who even plots to steal the gold from the fairies.

Edgar Rice Burroughs wrote the Mars novels and the Tarzan novels.There are 11 novels in the Mars series beginning with 'A princess of mars'.Captain John Carter of the Confederate Army is whisked to Mars and discovers a dying world of dry ocean beds where giant four-armed barbarians rule, of crumbling cities home to an advanced but decaying civilization, a world of strange beasts and savage combat, a world where love, honor and loyalty become the stuff of adventure. The later books are about his son Carthoris,daughter Tara etc.John carter is a recurring character in all these books as martians live for 1000 years.

The best among the Tarzan novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs is 'Son of Tarzen.' Jack,the son of Tarzan shared his father's love for apes.He was only trying to help an ape escape to Africa from his cruel trainer.However he got involved in a murder and couldn't return home.He chose to live in the jungle with the apes.Its a fascinating book.The social system among the intelligent giant apes,Korak's relationship with Miriam are all interesting stuff.Its a great coming of age book.

Pirates of Venus introduces Carson Napier (a somewhat more cautious hero than John Carter), who builds himself a rocketship and blasts off for Mars. (How did he get to Venus? You'll just have to read the book.) Beneath the cloud cover of Venus Carson discovers a world of sky-high trees, warring kingdoms and princesses in need of rescue.

You can get free e-books by edgar rice burroughs from Project Gutenberg.

Dresden file book series by Jim Butcher.There are 8 books in the series beginning with stormfront.Each novel in the series is told from the fictional perspective of Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden (named by his father after Harry Houdini, Harry Blackstone, Sr., and David Copperfield). Dresden is the only professional wizard in modern-day Chicago (he is in the phone book, under "Wizards").In the world of The Dresden Files, magic is real, along with vampires, demons, spirits, faeries, werewolves, and more. The general public that Harry Dresden works to protect does not believe in magic or the large array of dark forces which regularly conspire against them. This makes it tough for Harry to get by as a working wizard and private eye.He is aided by Bob,a talking skull.Karrin Murphy-a police officer and Thomas-a white court vampire.

The Pendragon series by D.J. MacHale. This series is about a 14 year old boy who gets turned into a Traveler (a person that protects territories). He and other Travelers have to stop a (lol) a bad guy from causing chaos on territories.
The Alex Rider series by Anthony Horowitz! You might have heard of them before...or seen the movie. If you haven't then they are about a 14 year old boy who gets turned into a spy.
The Edge Chronicles by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell. The first 3 are about one person then they switch to another generation...(sorry, don't think I said that very well...)
Enjoy!
p.s Eragon by Christopher Paolini.

Well, if you like vampires and such, I recommend Twilight and New Moon by Stephanie Meyer{but since you are a boy, I doubt you'd want to read that, but it's up to you}

Well, also:

The Spiderwick Chronicles {Five books}
Artemis Fowl {possibly}{I don't know how many books}
Lord of the Rings {Three}
Dragon Rider {One}
The Shadow Children Sequence {it's a series, though the number excapes me tonight}

Most people are suggesting new series, which is fine. But why not read some classic books, and why not read them online for free. See the link below.

Note: Not all of the links work, but you could easily go to the library and check out any of these books.

Good luck!

Philip Pullman's Dark Materials trilogy is excellent.

Try artemis fowl. Or the Pendragon series. Also look for Avalon, or some books by Rick Riordan. I also like the Maximum Ride series by James Patterson. Who doesn't like to read about engineered human/bird people. Or "avian-americans" like they like to be called.

Try the Xanth series by Piers Anthony. Or pretty much anything by Piers Anthony is very good, my favorite reading as a teenager. Happy reading!
