Book One
"'A compelling and action-filled adventure . . . a galloping good example of its genre'" * Daily Telegraph * "'This book is an achievement. Readers . . . will be transported'" * Sunday Times * "'A portrayal of true affection between boy and dragon - Paolini writes like someone gripped by his own story'" * Guardian * "'A stirring fantasy of epic proportions'" * The Bookseller * "Mentioned in the Christmas Round Up - The huge saga of dragons and elves is remarkable for outseleing Harry Potter...and pretty pacy too." -- Georgia Metcalfe * Daily Mail *
Christopher Paolini was educated at home by his parents. His abiding love of fantasy and science fiction inspired him to begin writing his debut novel, Eragon, when he graduated from high school at fifteen. Now twenty, he lives with his family in Montana, USA, where he is at work on Eldest, the next volume in the Inheritance trilogy. Inheritance, the final book in the sequence, will be published in November 2011.
