Brisingr
by Christopher Paolini
This book is about a young Dragon Rider named Eragon. Eragon lives in a land called Alagaesia which is the home to People, Elves, Dwarves, Dragons, and Horned guys called Urgals. In the previous books Eragon found an egg that hatched into a dragon. Soon two bad guys called the Ra'zac ,who were sent by the evil king Galbatorix, came to find Eragon and the dragon. They then ran to the Varden, a bunch of guys who oppose Galbatorix, who then trained Eragon so he could fight and defeat the Evil king on his dragon. But his friend Murtagh became enslaved by Galbatorix, who gave him a red dragon, and was commanded to capture Eragon. They had a battle and Eragon got away but almost got captured.

This book which is the third book in the series begins when Eragon and his long lost cousin Roran are at the lair of the Ra,zac so they can ambush them and get revenge on them for killing their Dad (who is Eragon's foster dad and Roran's actual dad) and to save Roran's wife. After finally defeating the Ra,zac, Eragon had to walk back home, cause he had to get rid of the bad guy Sloan. When he finally got back his cousin was about to officially get married when The Varden were attacked again by Murtagh and a bunch of Crazy bad guys who don't feel pain.

This time Eragon defeated Murtagh with the help of some Elf magicians, but he escaped. Afterward Eragon had to go to the Dwarves mountain place of Farthen Dur where he had to try to get the dwarves to announce a new king who was in favor of the Varden. After a few weeks of enduring the dwarves sluggish politics they finally announced Orik, Eragons friend who is a dwarf, to be king.

After that Eragon flew up to the Elves capitol city of Elesmera to receive more training. There he learns a secret about his real dad and he learns about a way to be able to finally defeat Galbatorix. He also gets a new sword (cause Murtagh stole his old one) which catches on fire every time he says its name. Then he goes to Feinster to help the Varden capture it. Then he has to fight a shade.

This book is was very intriguing. This is my first time reading the series and I actually think that it is one of my favorites. I really like how much depth the book has and how creative it is. It really is one of those books you cant put down.
