About the book: 

A wanderer and a cursed child. Spells and magic. And dragons, of course. Welcome back to the world of Alagaësia.

It's been a year since Eragon departed Alagaësia in search of the perfect home to train a new generation of Dragon Riders. Now he is struggling with an endless sea of tasks: constructing a vast dragonhold, guarding dragon eggs and dealing with Urgals and elves. Then a vision from the Eldunarí and an exciting legend offer a much-needed distraction and a new perspective.

Three fantastic original stories, interspersed with scenes from Eragon's own unfolding adventure and an excerpt from the memoir of Angela the herbalist, penned by Angela Paolini.

About the Author

Christopher Paolini was born in Southern California and lived most of his life in Paradise Valley, Montana. The tall, jagged Beartooth Mountains that rise on one side of Paradise Valley inspired the fantastic scenery in Eragon, the first novel in his  Inheritance Cycle.

Christopher's journey to becoming a globally beloved publishing phenomenon is as magical as the fantasy novels he writes. Christopher was homeschooled by his parents and often wrote short stories and poems, made frequent trips to the library, and read widely. He was fifteen when he wrote the first draft of Eragon, and his family self-published the book in 2001.

In August 2003,  Alfred A. Knopf Books for Young Readers  published  Eragon,  and it was an instant success, reaching a worldwide audience. Christopher's second novel,  Eldest,  was published in 2005, followed by  Brisingr  in 2008.  Inheritance,  the fourth and final book in the cycle, released in November 2011. Additional titles in  The World of Eragon  include  Eragon's Guide to Alagaësia  and  The Fork, the Witch, and the Worm.

Today, the  Inheritance Cycle  is available in more than 50 countries, and together the four books in the series  (Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr, Inheritance)  have sold more than 40 million copies worldwide.
