Great book from Christopher Paolini. It has great plot and it describes the world of Alagaësia very precise.
The story is happening in a fantasy world, where young boy at age of 15 finds a dragon egg. Since there were no dragons around for several hundred years it is very odd that he has one. But not just that he found it, the dragon was born in his room and was bound with him.
The only other known dragon was in kings possession. He was from the Riders - people who took care for other people in the land and watched out for those who couldn't defend them selves. However he was one of few that fell on the dark side that has betrayed the elves, dwarfs and all other people. They wanted power and they wanted it only for themselves. And some time ago, they have got it.
Luckily for boy - Eragon there as old storyteller living in their village that was really a Rider. He was teaching Eragon how to become a Rider himself. He thought him how to craft magic, how to fight with a sword and even how to read. Eragon's uncle was slaughtered by two of kings most dreadful creatures. He wanted a revenge and that is when Broom and he went into the world. They have traveled a great part of Alagaësia and they fell into many bad situations. One was so bad that Broom lost his life int it.
That is when Eragon gets to know a guy that was very much like him, Murtagh. One great difference was that he was not farmer boy, but was from the king's castle.
In a mean time dragon Saphira also grown. She was quite the fighter herself.
Later in the story Eragon meets dwarfs and humans that were fighting against the tyrant.
The story is very well written, especially if you know that it was written by a 15 years old boy. It is a must read for all fiction lovers. And one more thing, there will be a movie after this book very soon (here).
