Eragon n''a que quinze ans, mais le destin de l''Empire est désormais entre ses mains ! C''est en poursuivant une biche dans la montagne que le jeune Eragon, quinze ans, tombe sur une magnifique pierre bleue, qui s''avère être... un oeuf de dragon ! Fasciné, il l''emporte à Carvahall, le village où il vit pauvrement avec son oncle et son cousin. Il n''imagine pas alors qu''une dragonne, porteuse d''un héritage ancestral, va en éclore... Très vite, la vie d''Eragon est bouleversée. Contraint de quitter les siens, le jeune homme s''engage dans une quête qui le mènera aux confins de l''empire de l''Alagaësia. Armé de son épée et guidé par les conseils de Brom, le vieux conteur, Eragon va devoir affronter avec sa dragonne les terribles ennemis envoyés par le roi Galbatorix, dont la malveillance démoniaque ne connaît aucune limite.

Eragon a une double promesse à tenir : aider Roran à délivrer sa fiancée, Katrina , prisonnière des Ra''zacs, et venger la mort de son oncle Garrow. Saphira emmène les deux cousins jusqu''à Helgrind, repaire des monstres. Or, depuis que Murtagh lui a repris Zar''oc, l''épée que Brom lui avait donnée, Eragon n''est plus armé que du bâton du vieux conteur. Cependant, depuis la Cérémonie du Sang, le jeune Dragonnier ne cesse de se transformer, acquérant peu à peu les fabuleuses capacités d''un elfe. Et Roran mérite plus que jamais son surnom de Puissant Marteau. Quant à Saphira, elle est une combattante redoutable. Ainsi commence cette troisième partie de l''Héritage, où l''on verra l''intrépide Nasuada, chef des Vardens, subir avec bravoure l''épreuve des Longs Couteaux ; les Vardens affronter les soldats démoniaques de Galbatorix ; Arya et Eragon rivaliser de délicates inventions magiques ; Murtagh chevauchant Thorn, son dragon rouge, batailler contre Eragon et Saphira. On s''enfoncera dans les galeries souterraines des nains ; on se laissera séduire par Nar Garzhvog, le formidable Urgal, et par l''énigmatique Lupusänghren, l''elfe au pelage de loup ; on retrouvera avec bonheur Oromis et Glaedr, le dragon d''or ; on constatera avec jubilation que Saphira montre toujours un goût certain pour l''hydromel. Et on saura enfin pourquoi le roman porte ce titre énigmatique : Brisingr, Feu en ancien langage.

Entrez dans le monde magique de l''Alagaësia... et au-delà... Un an s''est écoulé depuis qu''Eragon a quitté l''Alagaësia en quête du foyer parfait pour entraîner une nouvelle génération de Dragonniers. Aujourd''hui, il lutte contre un océan infini de tâches : construire un large refuge pour les dragons, négocier avec les fournisseurs, protéger les oeufs des dragons, et s''occuper des Urgals belliqueux et des Elfes hautains. Mais une vision créée par les Eldunarí, des visiteuses inattendues, et une captivante légende urgal vont lui procurer une distraction nécessaire et lui offrir une autre perspective. Savourez l''imagination incomparable de Christopher Paolini dans ce palpitant recueil d''histoires se déroulant dans le monde du cycle de l''Héritage.

Første bog i Paolinis spændende fantasy-serie! Eragons liv ændres for altid, da han under en jagt i skoven finder en smuk blankpoleret sten. Snart udklækkes en drage fra stenen, og Eragon indser, at han er stødt på en arv næsten lige så gammel som riget selv. Han og dragen Saphira må flygte fra hjemegnen og hovedkulds ud i en verden, hvor magi og ukendte kræfter råder. Med sig har Eragon landsbyens gamle historiefortæller, der indvier ham i Rigets historie og hemmeligheder. Efterhånden forstår Eragon, hvorfor Rigets konge har sendt sine mørke tjenere ud efter ham, og hvorfor han for enhver pris må kæmpe mod kongens grusomheder. Kan Eragon påtage sig sit hverv som arvtager fra de legendariske Drageryttere? Fejler han, er det ikke blot ham selv, men alle frie mennesker, dværge og alfer i Riget, der vil gå til grunde. Bøgerne i Arven-kvartetten er: Eragon (1) Den ældste (2) Brisingr (3) Arven (4)

Anden bog i Paolinis spændende fantasy-serie! Mørket falder ... Sværd tordner ... Ondskaben hersker ... Eragon og hans drage Saphira har overlevet slaget om Tronjheim, men ikke alle har været så heldige. I de mange magtkampe, der bryder ud efter oprørslederens død, må Eragon manøvrere med al sin snilde, for ikke at bringe spinkle alliancer ud af balance. Nu mere end nogensinde er Eragon det eneste håb for oprørerne, men hvem kan han stole på, og hvad betyder hans uheldsvangre syner? Disse spørgsmål plager Eragon under rejsen til elvernes land, hvor han skal færdiggøre sine evner som Rytter. Mens Eragon optrænes i brugen af magi, overfalder de afskyelige Ra’zac landsbyen Carvahall. De er ude efter Eragons fætter, Roran, som har oplysninger, der kan blive skæbnesvangre for Eragon og hele Alagaësia. Ikke alle vil kunne slippe fra Galbatorix’ mørke kræfter ...

En av de mest efterlängtade och efterfrågade böckerna någonsin! Brisingr är den tredje delen i succéserien om Eragon och draken Saphira. I Sverige har de två första titlarna, Eragon och Den äldste, sålt i närmare 200 000 exemplar. Alla som läst de tidigare böckerna vet att Brisingr är det första ord med magisk betydelse som Eragon lär sig.”Det var det första ord jag tänkte på som titel för boken”, berättar den unge författaren Christopher Paolini. ”I den här boken avslöjas det att ordet är ännu mer betydelsefullt än vad till och med Eragon kunnat ana. ”Serien har översatts till 50 språk och gjort formidabel succé världen över. I USA räknar man med att trycka Brisingr i en första upplaga om 2,5 miljoner exemplar! Christopher Paolini, som bara var 15 år gammal då han skrev ”Eragon”, har på kort tid blivit publicerad världen över. Vilket inte alls är förvånande: hans ”Eragon” och "Den äldste" är fantastiska fantasyäventyr, fylla av mystik, drakar, alver, passion och strider mellan ont och gott, lika underbara för vana som för blivande fantasyläsare.

För inte så länge sedan var Eragon, drakryttaren, inget annat än en fattig bondpojke, och hans drake Saphira endast en blå sten I skogen. Nu vilar en hel civilisations öde på deras axlar. Många månader av träning och slag har fört med sig både segrar och hopp, men också hjärtslitande förluster. Dessutom väntar fortfarande den svåraste utmaningen: de måste möta Galbatorix. Och när de gör det måste de vara starka nog att besegra honom. För om inte de kan, kan ingen. En andra chans existerar inte.Ryttaren och hans drake har kommit längre än någon vågat hoppas. Men kan de övervinna den ondskefulla kungen och återinföra rättvisan I Alagaësia? Och till vilket pris? "Arvtagaren" är den fjärde och sista delen i succéserien om Eragon och draken Saphira. I Sverige har böckerna sålt i närmare 300 000 exemplar.De tidigare delarna i serien heter: "Eragon", "Den äldste" och "Brisingr".

Not so very long ago, Eragon - Shadeslayer, Dragon Rider - was nothing more than a poor farm boy, and his dragon, Saphira, only a blue stone in the forest. Now, the fate of an entire civilization rests on their shoulders.

In Aagaesia, a fifteen-year-old boy of unknown lineage called Eragon finds a mysterious stone that weaves his life into an intricate tapestry of destiny, magic, and power, peopled with dragons, elves, and monsters.
