About this listen
Master storyteller and internationally bestselling author Christopher Paolini returns to the World of Eragon in this stunning epic fantasy set a year after the events of the Inheritance Cycle. Join Dragon Rider—and fan favorite—Murtagh and his dragon as they confront a perilous new enemy!
The world is no longer safe for the Dragon Rider Murtagh and his dragon, Thorn. An evil king has been toppled, and they are left to face the consequences of the reluctant role they played in his reign of terror. Now they are hated and alone, exiled to the outskirts of society.
Throughout the land, hushed voices whisper of brittle ground and a faint scent of brimstone in the air—and Murtagh senses that something wicked lurks in the shadows of Alagaësia. So begins an epic journey into lands both familiar and untraveled, where Murtagh and Thorn must use every weapon in their arsenal, from brains to brawn, to find and outwit a mysterious witch. A witch who is much more than she seems.
In this gripping novel starring one of the most popular characters from Christopher Paolini’s blockbuster Inheritance Cycle, a Dragon Rider must discover what he stands for in a world that has abandoned him. Murtagh is the perfect book to enter the World of Eragon for the first time . . . or to joyfully return.

During a routine survey mission on an uncolonized planet, Kira finds an alien relic. At first she's delighted, but elation turns to terror when the ancient dust around her begins to move. As war erupts among the stars, Kira is launched into a galaxy-spanning odyssey of discovery and transformation. First contact isn't at all what she imagined, and events push her to the very limits of what it means to be human. While Kira faces her own horrors, Earth and its colonies stand upon the brink of annihilation. Now, Kira might be humanity's greatest and final hope....

Dragons once soared in the skies, but that was before the Transformation, before they took human form. Now, demonic forces stand to obliterate them. When left mortally wounded, Darnuir, the Prince of Dragons, can only be saved through a dangerous rebirthing spell. He is left as a babe in human hands. Twenty years later, Darnuir is of age to wield the Dragon's Blade. As the last member of his bloodline, he is the only one who can. He is plunged into a role he is not prepared for, to lead a people he does not know.

Story
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

Story
Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Twelve-year-old Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school...again. No matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to stay out of trouble. But can he really be expected to stand by and watch while a bully picks on his scrawny best friend? Or not defend himself against his pre-algebra teacher when she turns into a monster and tries to kill him? Of course, no one believes Percy about the monster incident; he's not even sure he believes himself.

Good story but can be tough to listen to reader

What the critics say
"Twenty years after ERAGON, Gerard Doyle's familiar and compelling voice returns to narrate MURTAGH.... Doyle's talent for accents and passionate battle sequences shines, complementing the author's vivid world. Murtagh's voice resonates with a Scottish lilt, and Thorn's is a deep, throaty rumble. Doyle's somber narration of their torturous upbringing will break listeners' hearts. Yet, amid the shadows, the narrative brightens as the inseparable pair confront seemingly insurmountable challenges--and triumph through the strength of their bond." (AudioFile)
"A much-needed follow-up centering a beloved character." —Kirkus Reviews

Murtagh and Thorn are amazing
I’m a sucker for a story with dragons and I blame Christopher Paolini in particular. The bond between rider and dragon is so special and Paolini really grew as an author to be able to tell this story the way it needed to be told!

worth the wait
oh boy did I enjoy this book. the story was thrilling, agonizing, tragic and left me with many questions and excitement with how the story will progress in new installments. I felt like I had a clear picture with how the words painted into my mind on the ongoings of what happened. my words cannot do justice on how fitting this book is for the character of Murtagh. 10/10 would fork again

Alagëasia is back!!
This is a great first read for anyone unfamiliar with the world of Eragon and a must read for anyone who has read the Inheritance cycle. I've been waiting 12 yearsfor the chance to return to this world in a fresh full length novel and this doesn't disappoint at all.

The story and reading were solid!
Loved it overall, especially the new perspective of the world. Was a great continuation, my only fear is that the will cheapen the old series by making this new big bad some how was stronger than the old villain.

Very enjoyable story and nostalgic.
I thoroughly enjoyed the story even though the narrator rolls the "R's" way to much, it is a little distracting.

Rather enjoyed
This book was highly awaited and did not disappoint in either story or narration. However, this series is one of my favourites and have read/listened to the previous four books multiple times and I have noticed in this one that the narrator voices Thorn to sound an awful lot like Safira from the previous four books so that is the only downfall to me, I kept feeling as if I was listening to Safira speak when Thorn's lines were delivered.

I love all of Christopher's books. It took some time but I got used to Gerard's dragon voice. I am glad he has been the voice of all of the books set in Alagasia
