When fifteen-year-old Eragon finds a polished blue stone in the forest, he thinks it is the lucky discovery of a poor farm boy. But when the stone brings a dragon hatchling, Eragon soon realizes he has stumbled upon a legacy nearly as old as the Empire itself.

Overnight his simple life is shattered, and, gifted with only an ancient sword, a loyal dragon, and sage advice from an old storyteller, Eragon is soon swept into a dangerous tapestry of magic, glory, and power. Now his choices could save—or destroy—the Empire.

Really enjoyed this book, it's a shame nobody ever made a movie for it. For the best probably, it would have been a train wreck knowing Hollywood.

There is no Eragon movie in ba sing se.

Is it super cliche and tropey? 100%. Is it still a fun story? Absolutely.

It's much less cliche and tropey by the end too
