When Eragon finds a polished blue stone in the forest, he thinks it is the lucky discovery of a poor farm boy; perhaps it will buy his family meat for the winter.

Overnight his simple life is shattered, and he is thrust into a perilous new world of destiny, magic, and power.

Now Eragon must travel to Ellesmera, land of the elves, for further training in the skills of the Dragon Rider. Ages 12+. 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 Ellesmera, land of the elves, for further training in the skills of the Dragon Rider: magic and swordsmanship. Soon he is on the journey of a lifetime, his eyes open to awe-inspring new places and people, his days filled with fresh adventure. But chaos and betrayal plague him at every turn, and nothing is what it seems. Before long, Eragon doesn't know whom he can trust. Meanwhile, his cousin Roran must fight a new battle–one that might put Eragon in even graver danger. Will the king's dark hand strangle all resistance? Eragon may not escape with even his life...

Oaths sworn... loyalties tested... forces collide. It's been only months since Eragon first uttered "brisingr", an ancient language term for fire. Since then, he's not only learned to create magic with words—he's been challenged to his very core. Following the colossal battle against the Empires warriors on the Burning Plains, Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have narrowly escaped with their lives. Still, there is more adventure at hand for the Rider and his dragon, as Eragon finds himself bound by a tangle of promises he may not be able to keep. First is Eragon's oath to his cousin, Roran: to help rescue Roran's beloved from King Galbatorix's clutches. But Eragon owes his loyalty to others, too. The Varden are in desperate need of his talents and strength—as are the elves and dwarves. When unrest claims the rebels and danger strikes from every corner, Eragon must make choices—choices that will take him across the Empire and beyond, choices that may lead to unimagined sacrifice. Eragon is the greatest hope to rid the land of tyranny. Can this once simple farm boy unite the rebel forces and defeat the king?

It began with Eragon... It ends with Inheritance. 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. Long months of training and battle have brought victories and hope, but they have also brought heartbreaking loss. And still, the real battle lies ahead: they must confront Galbatorix. When they do, they will have to be strong enough to defeat him. And if they cannot, no one can. There will be no second chance. The Rider and his dragon have come further than anyone dared to hope. But can they topple the evil king and restore justice to Alagaësia? And if so, at what cost? This is the spellbinding conclusion to Christopher Paolini's worldwide bestselling Inheritance cycle.

'Do niedawna, Eragon, Smoczy jezdziec, byl biednym synem farmera, a jego smoczyca Saphira, jedynie blekitnym kamieniem w lesie.

This volume features three original stories set in Alagaësia, interspersed with scenes from Eragon's own unfolding adventure.

Eder aflægges … Alliancer sættes på en prøve … Styrker tørner sammen … Det er kun ganske få måneder siden, at Eragon for første gang sagde ordet "brisingr", der betyder ild på det gamle sprog. I mellemtiden har han ikke blot lært at fremsige besværgelser, men er også blevet udsat for uhyrlige prøvelser. I det kolossale slag på Den Brændende Slette slap Eragon og hans drage, Saphira, med nød og næppe med livet i behold, men der er ingen tid til hvile. Eragon må sande, at han er bundet af det utal af løfter, han har afgivet, men ikke nødvendigvis kan indfri. Først og fremmest har han svoret at hjælpe sin fætter med at befri hans elskede Katrina fra hendes fangenskab i Helgrind, men Roran er ikke den eneste, der har krav på hans troskab. Varden har desperat brug for hans bistand, og det samme er tilfældet for elverfolket og dværgene. Da der bliver ufred blandt oprørerne, og faren er størst, bliver Eragon tvunget til at træffe et valg. Et valg, der vil føre ham gennem Riget og længere endnu. Et valg, der kan føre til uforudset lidelse.
