One boy.... One dragon... A world of adventure. 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 soon 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. Can Eragon take up the mantle of the legendary Dragon Riders℃ The fate of the Empire may rest in his hands...

Readers...will be transported' Sunday Times 'A portrayal of true affection between boy and dragon . . . Paolini writes like someone gripped by his own story' Guardian 'A stirring fantasy of epic proportions' The Bookseller
