Eldest
Christopher Paolini did an incredible on Eldest! Once again he amazes me with his creative imagination and writing skills. I think that the best part was the end because it was such a good cliff hanger and left me completely psyched for Brisinger. I couldn’t wait and I still can't. The story goes something like this...
Ajihad dies and Eragon must leave for Du Weldenvarden to complete his training with the elves. When he gets there he meets Orimis and Glaedr, another dragon and rider. They are the ones who train him for his eventual face-off with Galbatorix. The scar that Durza gave Eragon continues to pain him, but something happens that makes the pain bearable. After scrying Arya, he learns that the Varden are preparing to battle Galbatorix's army and he must abandon his training for the time being to help them. During the battle he meets someone unexpected and, here’s the twist, Angela predicted it in Eragon.
Meanwhile Roran, Eragons cousin must fight his own battle. the Raz'ac come to take him the the king but Roran decides he doesn’t want to go so he gathers the village of Carvahall and they run to Surda, a country that opposes the Empire, and from there, hopefully the Varden.

Eragon (Movie)
The eragon movie is not what i thought it would be. I love Eragon but the movie was not at all as good as the book. It didn't follow the story plot, Eragon wasn't chasing the Raz'ac, they never visit Tierm, and they get all the locations wrong, and countless other mistakes. Its good if you think of it as something other than Eragon. If your determined to watch Eragon, Read the book last.

Eragon
Eragon is about a boy named Eragon who finds a round, blue stone. That stone turns out to be a dragon egg and the evil king is after it. The dragon hatches and Eragon names her Saphira. He then travels around Alagasia learning magic and swordsmanship and to join the Varden, a rebel group determined to resist the evil king, Galbatorix.
