Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Gerrard Shale's reading turns this magnificent adventure into a thrilling audiobook for fans of all ages.
When Eragon finds a polished stone in the forest, he thinks it is the lucky discovery of a poor farm boy; perhaps it will buy his family meat for the winter. But when the stone brings a dragon hatchling, Eragon soon realises he has stumbled upon a legacy nearly as old as the Empire itself.
Overnight his simple life is shattered and he is thrust into a perilous new world of destiny, magic and power. With only an ancient sword and the advice of an old storyteller for guidance, Eragon and the fledgling dragon must navigate the dangerous terrain and dark enemies of an Empire ruled by a king whose evil knows no bounds. Can Eragon take up the mantle of the legendary Dragon Riders? The fate of the Empire may rest in his hands....

Great but...
I really love this book. The story is told well but the voice used for the dragon is a bit obnoxious. It's all gurggly like someone who's smoked too much. I understand the perspective the narrator was going for and I can get over the annoying dragon voice because the story is just that wonderful. It's the kind of story you can really get wrapped up into and really makes you want to find out what happens next.

Brilliant
Absolutely fantastic book, read incredibly well. Only annoyance I found was the voice of the Dragon (just to annoy her)

just a darn good yarn
i have the series in hardback already and love it. Thought I'd try listening to it too. Although the characters didn't sound the same as in my head the narrator does a great job and the story rolls along at a good pace

Magic & Dragons, what’s not to love!!
If you’re a fan of dragons, magic set in medieval time then these books are right up your alley.
For those who have seen the film, no doubt you were disappointed (I was too!!). However, these books are in a different ball park, they’re fun and the character and world building is fantastic.
