Eragon

The first legendary book of The Inheritance Cycle.

Master storyteller and internationally bestselling author Christopher Paolini returns to the World of Eragon with Murtagh. Murtagh, a stunning epic fantasy set a year after the events of the Inheritance Cycle.

The first book in The Inheritance Cycle.

When poor farm boy Eragon finds a polished stone in the forest, he thinks it's a lucky discovery. Perhaps, he will be able to buy his family food for the winter.

But, when a baby dragon hatches out of the stone, Eragon realises he's stumbled upon a legacy nearly as old as the Empire itself.

His simple life is shattered, and he's thrust into a perilous new world of destiny, magic and power. To navigate this dark terrain, and survive his cruel king's evil ways, he must take up the mantle of the legendary Dragon Riders.

Will he succeed? The fate of the Empire rests in his hands. . .

Mumma Chelles Review

Eragon is an epic story of courage, destiny, and the unbreakable bond between a boy and his dragon. Christopher Paolini’s vivid world-building and heartfelt storytelling make this the perfect series for readers who love adventure, magic, and characters who grow through courage and curiosity.

It’s one of my personal favourites — a reminder that even when the path ahead is uncertain, belief in yourself can turn the impossible into the extraordinary. With rich themes of resilience, friendship, and finding your place in the world, Eragon invites readers of all ages to get lost in its pages and rediscover the magic of believing in something bigger than themselves.
