When Eragon finds a polished stone in the forest, he thinks it is
the lucky discovery of a poor farm boy; perhaps it will buy his
family meat for the winter. But when the stone brings a dragon
hatchling, Eragon soon realizes he has stumbled upon a legacy
nearly as old as the Empire itself. Overnight his simple life is
shattered and he is thrust into a perilous new world of destiny,
magic and power. With only an ancient sword and the advice of an
old storyteller for guidance, Eragon and the fledgling dragon must
navigate the dangerous terrain and dark enemies of an Empire ruled
by a king whose evil knows no bounds. Can Eragon take up the mantle
of the legendary Dragon Riders? The fate of the Empire may rest in
