Eragon es el primer titulo de la trilogia de El Legado, que tiene como protagonistas a este valiente joven y a su indomable dragona Saphira. En el reino legendario de Alagaesia la guerra se esta gestando. Los Jinetes protectores de la paz del Imperio y los unicos capaces de controlar a los inteligentes dragones, se han extinguido o han pasado a formar parte de las tropas del malvado rey Galbatorix. Los elfos hace tiempo que se han exiliado a un lugar oculto y los vardenos, un grupo disidente, se ocultan en ciudades protegidas. Cuando Eragon, un joven de 15 anos que vive en una pequena aldea, se encuentra con una piedra preciosa en medio del bosque a donde ha ido a cazar, poco se espera que ese suceso vaya a cambiar su vida y el destino de Alagaesia. Lo unico que desea es venderla para asi asegurar la subsistencia de su familia durante el duro invierno.

La esperanza del Imperio descansa en sus manos... / Fifteen-year-old Eragon believes that he is merely a poor farm boy until his destiny as a Dragon Rider is revealed.
