Eragon
9-30-08
The Inheritance Cycle is a series of books about a young farmer named Eragon.
In the first book Eragon, Eragon finds a dragon egg in the mountains by his home. The egg hatches after he takes it home and he gets some information about dragons from Brom the local storyteller. Soon after, the Ra'zac (evil manlike creatures serving the emperor) come searching for the dragon. After severely injuring Eragon's Uncle Garrow and destroying their farm, they try to go after Saphira (Eragon's dragon) but Brom delays them. Eragon grabs some stuff gets Garrow back to the village and tries to go off to kill the Ra'zac by riding Saphira. Brom finds him and insists that he comes to and the go on horses.
They travel south and on the way they run into some trouble and Eragon discovers that he can use magic. Brom shows that he has some knowledge in magic and starts to teach Eragon how to properly use it.
That's enough for now. More later.

Thanks for summarizing for me. I remember this part of the story! Pretty good, eh?
I am always fascinated by how the authors introduce and use magic in fantasy books. It's incredibly intriguing. I like to analyze it. Usually the magical person discovers their magic at some point.
