Kurzbeschreibung

The second thrilling book of the Inheritance cycle.

Beschreibung

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, cruel ruler of the Empire. Now Eragon must travel to Ellesméra, land of the elves, for further training in magic and swordsmanship, the vital skills of the Dragon Rider. It is the journey of a lifetime, filled with awe-inspiring new places and people, each day a fresh adventure. But chaos and betrayal plague him at every turn, and Eragon isn't sure whom he can trust.

Meanwhile, his cousin Roran must fight a new battle back home in Carvahall - one that puts Eragon in even graver danger.

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

Rezension

"A compelling and action-filled adventure . . . A galloping good example of its genre" Daily Telegraph 20050722

Klappentext

Christopher Paolini was educated at home by his parents. His abiding love of fantasy and science fiction inspired him to begin writing his debut novel, Eragon, when he graduated from high school at fifteen. He became a New York Times bestselling author at nineteen. Christopher lives in Montana, USA, where the dramatic landscape fed his vision of Alagaesia. Inheritance, the final book in the sequence, will be published in November 2011.

Biografie

Als Jugendlicher entdeckt Christopher Paolini, der nie eine öffentliche Schule besuchte, die Welt der Bücher. Hingerissen verschlingt er J. R. R. Tolkien, Raymond Feist, die nordischen Heldensagen - und erschafft mit 15 Jahren eine ganz eigene, komplexe Fantasy-Welt.
