Before we dive into what this book is all about, let’s fill you in on that exciting TV news. According to Variety, a live-action iteration of Eragon is in early development at Disney+. The novel is the first in author Christopher Paolini’s fantasy series, The Inheritance Cycle, which features three more novels after Eragon. The author confirmed the news on Twitter, as well. Why all the excitement? Well, one skim of the novel’s plot and we’re sure you’ll be intrigued.
Eragon tells the story of the titular young farm boy, who finds an egg that eventually hatches, welcoming a dragon Eragon names Saphira. With the help of his mentor Brom and his strengthening bond with Saphira, Eragon learns to become a Dragon Rider — an ancient people once thought to have been completely wiped out by the tyrannical king Galbatorix. It’s up to Eragon and Saphira to restore freedom to the land of Alagaësia, and defeat Galbatorix once and for all.
