Eragon is out of the pages and onto film.
Luckily I have a great friend who introduced me to this young author and started the fan in me for Eragon. Shee told me about there being a movie coming out, and here is the clip about it. And you know there is a series, with the next book Eldest, aslo...
I have found Eragon on digital books. Hopefully this one works! Yes!
Writen for my geosite friends:
Another Dragon comes out of the page and into another dimension.

About Eldest: http://www.teenreads.com/reviews/037582670X.asp Interview with Author: http://www.azcentral.com/arizonarepublic/arizonaliving/articles/1208qapaolini1208.html Luckily this is not the only source for finding what we seek to learn about: The author of this article doesn't like Paolini at all. He picked on his writing like Tolkien and Star Wars. And that the character names are similar. Even his outfit for his book tour was critisized. Who doesn't see a familiar trend with sci-fi? And I didn't know there was a license out on who could write about dwarfs and elves. And I don't know where this reviewer lives. Every one I know loves his work and anticipate what he will do next. The numbers prove this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eragon
Luckily there was a link http://www.alagaesia.com/ to the author's site, where I read this. ABOUT CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI http://www.alagaesia.com/christopherpaolini.htm
Christopher Paolini was born on November 17, 1983 in Southern California. ...
Christopher was homeschooled by his parents. He often wrote short stories and poems in attempt to put his thoughts into words. He made frequent trips to the library and read widely. Some of his favorite books were Bruce Colville's Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher, Frank Herbert's Dune, Raymond E. Feist's Magician, and Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials, as well as books by Anne McCaffrey, Jane Yolen, Brian Jacques, E.R. Eddison, David Eddings, and Ursula Le Guin.Eragon is the first novel in the Inheritance trilogy. I started this book when I was fifteen, after several failed attempts composing other stories....
Eragon is an archetypal hero story, filled with exciting action, dangerous villains, and fantastic locations. There are dragons and elves, sword fights and unexpected revelations, and of course, a beautiful maiden who's more than capable of taking care of herself.
I’ve always been fascinated with the sources of most modern fantasy that lie in Teutonic, Scandinavian, and Old Norse history. This is disregarding a large chunk of writing devoted to the myths from the British Isles. Because of this, I used Old Norse as the basis for my Elven language in Eragon, as well as many names. All the Dwarf and Urgal words, however, are of my own invention.
Ah, Thanks to my friend who got me into being a fan of this and the Chronicles, has sent me what she said she heard had happened. The movie to come out late 2006. The first is a trailer and the second is put together by a fan with more clips from the movie than what is shown in the trailer. Enjoy!
"check these out. they are for ERAGON the movie" Clip from above: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUMJS6IXk2k&search=eragon"and "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ethG8SbwB6k&search=eragon"
