Eragon

by Christopher Paolini · The Inheritance Cycle series

Farm boy Eragon's life changes forever when he discovers a polished blue stone in the forest—which hatches into Saphira, a dragon. Thrust into a legacy of Dragon Riders and ancient magic, Eragon must flee the Empire's dark forces and embrace his destiny as a resistance fighter. A sprawling coming-of-age fantasy steeped in classical dragon-rider tradition, with elves, dwarves, and an empire to overthrow.
