This is a story about a boy named Eragon who finds a stone while hunting. He takes the stone back home with him and after awhile the stone "hatches". Turns out it was a dragon's egg. After this we find Eragon's life changed. He goes through many adventures and heartaches, all the while growing into a man. This book swept me away and found it hard to put down. I do agree with some of the reviewers that think the story is a lot like LOTR, Star Wars, etc. but that does not take away from this story at all. I cannot tell you how many stories I've read that I could compare them to different book or a movie I watched. This book is still original enough to stand on it's own!
