Eragon
ERAGON


Eragon is about a boy, Eragon who finds a mysterious stone. The stone he found in the spine, a mountain chain that is very mysterious. The stone hatches and becomes a dragon and he hides the dragon for fear that his uncle will kill it. Little does he know if he had shown the dragon to his uncle and his uncle killed it he possibly could have died. Later his dragon, Saphira, who doesn't want him hurt, kidnaps him. When Eragon gets back to the farm he find his uncle mortally wounded. After his uncle dies he pursues the Razac, which are creatures that do the kings bidding. After a while he ends up in the dwarf capital Farthen Dur. After a time of uneasiness with the dwarfs a battle ensues in which the shade Durza is killed by Eragon and Saphira breathes fire.

My favorite part of the book is probably when the Urgals who are much like orcs from Lord of the Rings attack and they nearly overwhelm the dwarfs. The dwarves fight gallantly and after Saphira is injured Eragon flies to the dragon hold and they remove her armor, Eragon finds that the hall below them has Urgals tunneling in and it would be to slow to take the stairs so he takes the slide which is just cut into the mountain. After he gets down the stairs Durza, the shade breaks through the floor and a duel ensues and Saphira breaks thought the floor and Durza looks up and Eragon stabs him in the heart.

I would recommend this book to any body that likes fantasy books. This book I thought was good beacouse I think that it is an adventure/fantasy/action.
