Eragon - Christopher Paolini - paperback

The Heritage Series, Book 1

The life of young farm boy Eragon changes overnight when he finds a mysterious blue stone while hunting in the forests of the inhospitable Ridge.

At first Eragon is happy with the find, but to his great disappointment none of the traders who pass through the Valley of Palencar every year want to buy the stone from him. Then the stone reveals its secret and Eragon witnesses the birth of a dragon cub.

A close bond develops between Eragon and the dragon, Saphira. But the discovery of the stone has not gone unnoticed. Strange visitors are reported in Carvahall, strangers in black cloaks who will stop at nothing to find Eragon.

This becomes apparent when the farm of Eragon's foster father Garrow is completely destroyed. In desperation, Eragon flees to the forests of the Ridge, accompanied by Saphira and the old storyteller Brom. Thus begins the saga of Eragon, the Dragon Rider...
