My childhood/young adult love for fantasy books hasn't gone away...I've just expanded my horizons. The Inheritance series, written by Christopher Paolini was a new take on an old story between the partnership between dragon and man. The fascinating thing about these books wasn't necessarily the story, but the fact that it was written by a 17-year-old! The series is now four books long and begins with Eragon, a boy who saves a dragon egg and becomes the only dragon rider not controlled by the evil king Galbatorix. Love, betrayal, and rebellion commence and while Paolini's story stagnates at times, it's still a fun and imaginative tale!
Inheritance is currently #3 on the New York Times Children's Series Bestseller List.
