Inheritance Series

Eragon
****

By Christopher Paolini

What I like: The adventure, drama, and magic.

Plot: A Young farm boy named Eragon finds a smooth blue rock in a treacherous mountain range known as the Spine and takes it home with a view to selling it for some money to get his adopted family some food for the winter. When he finds it isn't valuable, he keeps it. But late one night he finds he has a dragon egg! He keeps it in secret and names it Saphira. But they are forced to leave when two strangers come to his village Carvahall. They try to capture Eragon an Saphira, but fail. They (Eragon and Saphira) flee with a new ally Brom, who has quite a few secrets to reveal (maybe). Eragon gets a new sword from Brom, learns magic and starts his tutoring.
