Book Review

Eragon (Inheritance, Book I)
by Christopher Paolini
Publisher: Paolini International, LLC
ISBN: 0-9666213-3-6                   Review by John Taliaferro

Christopher Paoliniís story unfolds like the tongue of a
dragon. Epics are supposed to be the reflections of
old-timers. Yet here strides a writer, young and bold,
who seems to live and breathe the adventures that score
every page of his remarkable debut novel.

Gifted only with an ancient red sword, the brilliant-blue
dragon Saphira, and advice from the old storyteller Brom,
the young man Eragon is entangled in an intricate tapestry
of destiny, magic, ancient glory, and love. His saga
carries readers through a fantastical land filled with
beauty and brooding danger as he flees the tyrannical
king, Galbatorix. A mysterious elven woman haunts Eragonís
dreams, while an ancient legacy and an unexpected
inheritance shape his destiny.
