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 doesnât know whom he can trust.
Meanwhile, his cousin Roran must fight a new battleâone that might put Eragon in even graver danger.
