Eragon, Book One: Inheritance by Christopher Paolini

Perfect for fans of Lord of the Rings, the New York Times bestselling Inheritance Cycle about the dragon rider Eragon has sold over 35 million copies and is an international fantasy sensation.


Fifteen-year-old Eragon believes that he is merely a poor farm boy—until his destiny as a Dragon Rider is revealed. Gifted with only an ancient sword, a loyal dragon, and sage advice from an old storyteller, Eragon is soon swept into a dangerous tapestry of magic, glory, and power. Now his choices could save—or destroy—the Empire.

Stichley's Rating:
I enjoyed the first book in-spite of some parts being a little immature in the writing style.  If you can overlook that it is a great book.  Nothing like the movie.  I also read the second and third book, but was so disappointed with the last book that I never finished it.  So to me it is an unfinished series.  That being said the first book is enjoyable and while it does have similarities to many other stories (Star Wars being just one), it is a decent book.
