Eragon - Christopher Paolini
I started Eragon by Christopher Paolini yesterday. Its titled Eragon Inheritance Trilogy, Book One. I picked this book up and Book two Eldest at the same time. Again, thanks to my mother in law for her birthday gift. I used the check she gave me to get a tons of books besides these two and others, the first 3 George R.R. Martin Song of Ice and Fire books. Her check has turned into months of great reading for me, so you see why I give her props every time I post about the books she gave me
I am only have way into the book, but it is very enjoyable so far. I don’t know if its great, but it is entertaining. Time will tell with this tale.
Anyone read these books already?
When Eragon finds a polished blue stone in the forest, he thinks it is the lucky discovery of a poor farm boy; perhaps it will buy his family meat for the winter. But when the stone brings a dragon hatchling, Eragon realizes he has stumbled upon a legacy nearly as old as the Empire itself. Overnight his simple life is shattered, and he is thrust into a perilous new world of destiny, magic, and power. With only an ancient sword and the advice of an old storyteller for guidance, Eragon and the fledgling dragon must navigate the dangerous terrain and dark enemies of an Empire ruled by a king whose evil knows no bounds. Can Eragon take up the mantle of the legendary Dragon Riders? The fate of the Empire may rest in his hands. . . .
