Totally awesome! I'm sure you've read it! Aw man! Cool! *sigh* It was awesome. I certainly hope those of you on this website have read it. If you haven't, go to the library and get it. Now. This moment. That's right, turn off the computer, and go see about getting it. The movie looks good except for the actor for Eragon the movie.
The story is set in Alagaesia , a midieval-type world. The land is ruled by a tyrant king named Galbatorix. Before Galbatorix took over, the dragon riders, warriors with magic that ride on dragons, kept the peace. Then one cocky Rider named Galbatorix flew into Urgal (a sort of Goblin creature) territory. As he rested, the urgals attacked. They killed his two friends, thier dragons, and his dragon. Galbatorix survived, but went crazy. He eventually went back to the riders, and they didn't see anything wrong with him.
When Galbatorix demanded another dragon, they finally saw his dementia. They refused, and Galbatorix swore to get revenge. He and twelve of his followers, named the Forsworn, destroyed the riders and captured three dragon eggs. Then one of the dragon eggs was stolen by the Varden, a rebel group. Dragon eggs in Alagaesia do not hatch until their destined master comes along. (I forgot to mention that the Forsworn were all killed one way or another be it by magic too powerful, suicide, or battle)
So the dragon egg that was captured was ferried between the land of the Elves and the Varden to give each a fair chance of hosting the new rider. One time, when the ferriers of the egg were bringing it to the Varden, they were attacked by some of Galbatorix's agents. Just before she was captured, Arya, one of the ferriers, sent the egg, using magic, far away.
It just so happens that it lands in the Spine, a treacherous area of mountains and woods. Eragon, who is one of the only people who hunts there, finds the egg and takes it home. I know this next sentence is used in every book review, but... To know what happens next, you'll just have to read it.

I know i spelt certainly wrong.
ERAGON? Ugh! I hate that book! Okay, maybe not hate, but you get the point. I do, however, hate the sequel. Eldest is one of the most boring and predictable books I have ever read. Or started.
I LOVE that book!! I know it's predictable, but the plot ROCKS!! I think at least. And I love dragons. What is with J.R.R. Tolkien? I think he can spell better.
Ahem, this is the internet, and talk with respect to a
114 year old.
Nice try.....
Yeah, if you think I will speak with respect to any one just because I'm told to, you are deeply mistaken.
That sounded really mean. But it's true. Oh well.
I would also like to add that Agatha Christie is two years older than J.R.R. Tolien. So THERE. My person is cooler than yours.
And I know age doesn't matter, I just felt like saying that.
I was just wondering.
Is 'I like cricket' something J.R.R. Tolkien wrote?
If not, you might want to make that its own sentence or put a semi-colin (;) before it in you profile.
AHhhhh. Good spot, thing!!!! MWahhahhahahaa.
I like it the way it is.
But it makes no sense.
Fine, I changed it.
Thank you.
First of all, I don't like the Inheritance trilogy and make it a point to hide from things that have direct involvement (for lack of a better word) with it. Secondly, the author needs to work on pronounciation keys. And finally, you aren't supposed to know it was Arya (assuming you spelled her name correctly).
