‘Eldest’ by Christopher Paolini was even better than the first.
Eragon has gone to the land of Elves to continue his training as a Dragon Rider. While he is there he learns more about how to wield magic, connect with his dragon and how to fight with his personal sword given to him in the first novel by Brom.
His cousin, Roran, has lead the villagers to a new place to live. Galbatorix destroyed the village that Eragon grew up in during his search for the dragon egg. While Roran is trying to find a new place for the villagers to live he learns of a new Dragon Rider, although he doesn’t realize it is his young cousin until the battle near the end of the book in which the two work together.
During that same battle, a new Dragon Rider is revealed. The twist and turns on who this person is and how they are connected to Eragon was a shock to me….I honestly didn’t see that one coming.
I still love this series. I enjoy reading about Eragon’s quick maturity and love for what he was destined to become. I would love to tell all, but that would ruin the magic of the story. Read it and enjoy.
