When fifteen-year-old Eragon finds a polished blue stone in the forest, he thinks it is the lucky discovery of a poor farm boy. But when the stone brings a dragon hatchling, Eragon soon realizes he has stumbled upon a legacy nearly as old as the Empire itself.

Overnight his simple life is shattered, and, gifted with only an ancient sword, a loyal dragon, and sage advice from an old storyteller, Eragon is soon swept into a dangerous tapestry of magic, glory, and power. Now his choices could save—or destroy—the Empire.

i want to ready this book so bad

I loved this book it had me captured right from the prologue there has not been another book that I have ever read that has done that to me. Can't believe the author was only 16 love the main characters in it the plot, the description, everything.

loved it

This is an amazing book about the adventures of an boy named Eragon and his dragon, Saphira. Brom the storyteller in his village follows him on his journey to find the Varden, an place where Eragon and Saphira could be safe. Sadly, the Varden is at war when they arrive. This is a book about friendship, courage, and determination.

The book is very interesting with a engaging story plot. I loved the creative use of mythological characters especially the elves!

This book was fairly interesting. It had some bland parts but as soon as you got further in the book, you understood what the information from the beginning was for. You have to be intellectually mature to understand some parts of the book. Overall, it was a good adventurous book.

I liked this book, it gives you a good sense of adventure and a sense of loss at some points, however, it seems pretty feeble compared to Inheritance and Brisingr.

Because it was really interesting and it has magic dragons action conflicts and surprises.

Love,Adventure,Humor,Mystery.Only words i can say is fantastic true genius
