The Inheritance Cycle, formerly the Inheritance Trilogy, is a series of fantasy books written by author Christopher Paolini that has sold more than 8 million copies worldwide. As of 2007, two of these four books have been published: Eragon (2003) and Eldest (2005). The 3rd Book, Brisingr is still being written and will be published on September 20, 2008. Publication plans for the fourth and final book have not been set. Both Eragon and Eldest were New York Times bestsellers. Eragon was adapted into a motion picture of the same name in 2006.
Set in the fictional world of Alagaësia, the novels focus on a teenaged boy named Eragon and his dragon Saphira as he learns he is a Dragon Rider, a legendary group who governed the land in times past. King Galbatorix, who destroyed the previous order (the Dragon Riders) and claimed the crown, sends his assassins to capture the boy and his dragon, thus initiating their journey into the secrets and lores of the lands that holds the most bewildered creatures, Alagaesia.
I love reading this kind of books and I was really surprised when Christopher Paolini said there will four books, I expect a great ending and I hope I won't be disappointed
