Darkness falls…despair abounds…evil reigns…
Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have just saved the rebel state
from destruction by the mighty forces of King Galbatorix, cruel
ruler of the Empire. Now Eragon must travel to Ellesmera, land of
the elves, for further training in the skills of the Dragon Rider:
magic and swordsmanship. Soon he is on the journey of a lifetime,
his eyes open to awe-inspring new places and people, his days
filled with fresh adventure. But chaos and betrayal plague him at
every turn, and nothing is what it seems. Before long, Eragon
doesn’t know whom he can trust.
Meanwhile, his cousin Roran must fight a new battle–one that
might put Eragon in even graver danger.
Will the king’s dark hand strangle all resistance? Eragon may
not escape with even his life. . . .

Christopher Paolini’s abiding love of fantasy and science
fiction inspired him to begin writing his debut novel, Eragon, when
he graduated from high school at fifteen after being homeschooled
all his life. Both Eragon and Eldest, the second book in the
Inheritance cycle, became instant New York Times bestsellers.
Christopher is currently at work on Brisingr, the third volume in
the cycle. He lives in Montana, where the dramatic landscape feeds
his visions of Alaga?sia.
