  • Homeschooler writes novel

    KUDOS to homeschool kids!We also love the fact that the author was in his teens and home schooled when he wrote this novel.If you have a boy that is into dragons be sure to buy the first and second book of the series. I struggle with buying it this year because it will leave you hanging because the third book is not yet in print and it is a bit awkward to go back and pick it up a year later. If you are trained to wait for Harry Potter then start buying the set right away. Be aware. This is a well done story and you will find it gripping because of the connection to the boy and his Dragon. It is the classic American tale- orphan finds trauma or struggle and is forced to look at how he was raised versus the bad blood he has come from. Star Wars lovers will see a very similar theme in the ...

  • Eragon

    Eragon by teen author Christopher Paolini, the first book in the Inheritance Trilogy, tells an engaging tale of dragons, magic and adventure. The main character of this best selling fantasy book is Eragon, a 15-year-old farm boy in Alagaesia. When hunting in the Spine, a mountain range near his home village Carvahall, Eragon finds a blue stone that happens to be a dragon egg. After the egg hatches, Eragon raises the dragon secretly and names her Saphira. The evil Ra'zac sent by the King Galbatorix kills Eragon's uncle and destroys his home. Accompanied by old storyteller Brom, Eragon and his dragon sets out on a treacherous journey full of twists and turns. Toward the end of the story, Eragon the Dragon Rider, his newly made friend Murtagh, and Saphira arrive at Tronjheim, where the rebel ...

  • a must read for any fan of this genre

    A classic Lord of The Rings type setting with all the races recreated to Paolini's liking make for a unique and engrossing book. The mental and physical connection described between a Dragon and its Rider is unlike any I've ever seen before. The story maintains a feeling of believability throughout that I've never experienced in this Genre before. Character behavior and actions are believable. One of my favorite things was the way the magic works. Magic is not some limitless power where you can learn a few spells and cast them repeatedly with no regard becoming invincible to any non mage. Every spell cast uses physical energy making it possible to kill yourself with too many or too powerfull a spell. Even a DragonRider with all their skill and power can be killed as easy as anyone ...

  • Eragon Crazy!

    I picked this book off of Ebay for my boyfriend. He loves this series very much. Everything he reads is mostly about dragons but this series by far is his favorite. We are very excited about the release of the third book in the inheritance triology and are also anxiously awaiting the release of the movie for the first book. We hope that there will be a movie for all three. If your looking for a great book in an amazing series, you'll definitely want to give this one a try. This wonderful young author has an incredible ability to capture audiances of many ages. Your sure to love it too!

  • This was written by a 15 year old?!!?!!

    This book is easily in the same category as Lord of the Rings. And to think that a 15 year old penned the tale! The story, which I am excited to learn will be a movie this holiday season, is complex, and the visuals created in the mind while reading, are fantastic. For those who have read it, who can forget the image of destruction and chaos of the village destroyed by the Urgals? While there are many foriegn words, and use of languages unknown to human minds, the characters and situations seem all too real. This epic story that spans a trio of yet unfinished books, will engage and enthrall old and young alike. I am an elementary school teacher, and my 5th graders hung on every word as I read aloud chapters to them throughout the year. If you are a fan of fantasy, and medieval ...
