My Outside Reading Book

So today our magical blogging experience will be surrounding the latest book (and my book report book) that I finished reading about 20 hours ago, “Brisingr”. It is the third in the ‘inheritance series’ by author Cristopher Paoloni.
The book closely follows the path of young dragon rider Eragon, his dragon Saphira, and his cousin Roran. I cannot even begin to tell you about the first two books in detail, they total over1500 pages.
The books in order (see pictures at top) are Eragon, Eldest, and Brisingr.
So I will try to sum up the first one. (spoilers ahead!)
The first book entitled Eragon describes the main character (Eragon) and his early teenage years. Eragon grew up on a farm in a small village called Caravahall, where he lived with his uncle Garrow and his cousin Roran on the family farm. Eragon is taking one of his usual hikes through the mountain range called ‘the spine’ when suddenly there is a flash of light and a loud crack as a large sapphire rock appears on the ground. He finds the rock clearly fascinating so he tries to sell it to get money. The shopkeeper refuses to accept the thing because ‘anything that comes out of the spine [mountains] is cursed!’ So Eragon decides to bring the rock home in case it was of any use. As it turns out the rock is actually an egg with a dragon hatchling inside. (NO WAI!) Eragon raises the dragon to the size of a small cow when he realizes that the dragon can talk. IN ENGLISH. WITH HER MIND. (Crazy right?) Once Eragon learned this he set out to ride the dragon. Because of her rough scales he would often end up with large bleeding cuts on his leg. He then sought the help of the local storyteller Brom. (The third book reveals him as Eragons father). And so, Brom ends up being a dragon rider as well, his dragon died, and goes on a quest with Eragon to become stronger. The book ends with Eragon taking place in an epic battle for power after few years of training, and succeeds. But there is a strange new power in the land, and it takes the form of the all powerful dark king Galbatorix. So concludes my summary of the first book. (MORE TO COME…)
