Darkness falls… despair abounds… evil reigns… Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have just saved the rebel state from destruction by the mighty forces of King Galbatorix. Now Eragon must travel to Ellésmera, land of the elves, for further training in the skills of the Dragon Rider: magic and swordsmanship. But chaos and betrayal plague him at every turn, and nothing is what it seems. Before long, Eragon doesn’t know whom he can trust.

Will the king’s dark hand strangle all resistance? Eragon may not escape with even his life. . . .

    Paolini’s 2nd book of the Inheritance Cycle) is an incredible second part of the thrilling, epic adventures of Eragon in Alagaësia. Just like the first book, Eragon, I had a hard time putting down the book. I followed along with the Audible narrator, Gerard Doyle, who is by far the best narrator I’ve ever heard!! Doyle gave life to Paolini’s characters making this incredible tale even more remarkable! I would definitely recommend not only this book but the entire series!

  • Epic Ending!

    This book tells a very well a woven story and I absolutely loved it. Chris's writing really lets your imagination go wild (and make you want to punch whoever made the Eragon movie) It is a must for fans of adventure. I recommend you read Eragon before for the best experience
