ERAGON

ERAGON:
Inheritance, Book One, Christopher Paolini,
Knopf Books for Young, Readers, Science Fiction
ISBN: 0375826688 528 pages

One day, a young farm boy named Eragon finds a blue stone while hunting and tries to sell it for
money. Unsuccessful in his attempts, he takes the stone back to his cabin and lets it sit there until it
hatches into a beautiful blue dragon. Eragon realises he can talk to this secret pet dragon with his mind,
and eventually learns that he and the dragon are part of a legacy of secret heroes called the Riders.
With the help of Brom, a wise man, Eragon matures into his destiny. The challenges he face include
fighting along-standing war, helping an ethereal elf, and dealing with tragedy and revenge. Certain
details, such as Eragon’s revelation that he cannot read, develop this rich work and blend together to
produce a number of plot twists. The story builds suspense steadily until the end.
Remarkably, author Christopher Paolini began writing Eragon at the age of 15. Now 19, he has
already established himself as an exciting new creator whose influences include Tolkien, McCaffrey, and
others. His world is intricate, his characters believable, and his writing engaging.
Both casual readers and hardcore fans of fantasy and science fiction novels will be enchanted by
this well crafted fantasy and unquestionably will look forward to parts two and three of this exciting
trilogy.
