The Inheritance Cycle: Eragon

Christopher Paolini has started a series of books that has not been matched by any author in this specific genre. Of course I think each book develops its own kind of genre.

Summary: A farmer named Eragon finds a forbidden dragon egg in the feared forest called the Spine. Soon after, mysterious beings threaten his town and his only family consisting of his cousin Roran and his uncle Garrow. Eragon leaves with his dragon and one of the story tellers named Brom to escape the wrath of the evil reign of King Galbatorix who killed many of the Riders in his conquest to seize power.

Thoughts: READ. IT. NOW. It's amazing. There is action, dry comedy and everything that a fantasy lover dreams of. The adventures that Eragon goes through make a chill go down my spine. His blue dragon Saphira is super funny with her witty remarks at Eragon. MUST READ SERIES. The fourth one comes out later this year and I reread this one to reaquaint myself with the story line.

Rating: 8.9/10
