Synopsis
Eragon
is a farm boy who is 17 years of age and lives in a small village named
Carvahall in the fictional and magical country of Alagaësia
that
contains dragons and other such fictional creatures. While hunting, he
finds a dragon egg that is the size of a small cat. From the egg
hatches a blue dragon named Saphira. Eragon decides to keep Saphira a
secret, but a pair of magical creatures, The Razac, are sent by the
King of Alagaesia, Galbatorix, to find Eragon and the dragon. He flees
home, and returns to find out his uncle Garrow has been killed by the
Razac and so sets out on a journey to avenge his Uncle. Accompanied by
a wise storyteller named Brom, Eragon and Saphira take up the legacy of
legendary Dragon Riders. He learns magic, swordfighting, and
dragon-riding to fulfil the legend of the dragon riders and his
destiny, to help the varden overthrow the Empire and its tyrant king,
Galbatorix.
