The first book John Steinbeck read as a child was the Caxton Morte d'Arthur, and he considered it one of the most challenging tasks of his career to modernize the stories of King Arthur. "These stories are alive even in those of us who have not read them," he says. "And, in our day, we are perhaps impatient with the words and the stately rhythms of [Thomas] Malory. I wanted to set the stories down in meaning as they were written, leaving out nothing and adding nothing."

Ein Junge und sein Drache erleben ein fantastisches Abenteuer: Als Eragon beim Jagen einen geheimnisvollen Stein findet, hat er noch keine Ahnung, wie nachhaltig dieser sein Leben verändern wird, denn aus dem Stein schlüpft ein Drachenbaby. Als die Ra'zac, Schergen des grausamen Herrschers Glabatorix, Eragons Onkel, bei dem er aufgewachsen ist, umbringen, muss er, zusammen mit Saphira, dem Drachen und Brom, einem alten Drachenreiter, fliehen. Dabei lernt er viel über seine Aufgaben als Drachenreiter kennen. Die Drachenreiter bekämpfen den König erbittert. Als Eragon nach langer Zeit bei den rebellischen Varden ankommt und ihnen bei einer wichtigen Schlacht zum Sieg verhilft, ist der Weg zum Abschluss seiner Drachenreiterlehre bei den Elfen endlich geebnet. Auch wenn das Buch stellenweise Parallelen zu J.R.R. Tolkiens "Der Herr der Ringe" aufweist, ist es ein hervorragender Erstling und ein spannender Auftakt der Eragon-Trilogie. Sehr empfehlenswert für Fantasy-Fans. Ab 12 Jahren, ausgezeichnet, Laura Varoni.
