first book in the Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini, who began
writing the book at the age of 15. After writing the first draft for a
year, he spent a second year rewriting it and fleshing out the story and
characters. Paolini's parents saw the final manuscript and decided to
self-publish Eragon.
