Coleção Aventuras Encantadas
Cai a escuridão...
Colidem as espadas...
Reina o mal.
Eragon e seu dragão, Saphira, acabaram de salvar um estado rebelde da destruição planejada pelas forças poderosas do rei Galbatorix, cruel governante do Império. Eragon rumará agora para Ellesméra, terra dos elfos, para aprimorar seu treinamento em magia e nas artes da espada, habilidades vitais para um Cavaleiro de Dragão. É a jornada de uma vida, cheia de lugares e pessoas diferentes, dignas de admiração e reverência, em cada dia uma nova aventura. Mas o caos e a traição o importunam a cada instante e Eragon não sabe em quem deve confiar.
Enquanto isso, seu primo Roran se envolve numa nova batalha em Carvahall - vilarejo onde nasceu e cresceu -, batalha que coloca Eragon num perigo ainda maior.
Será que a mão negra do rei sufocará toda e qualquer resistência? Eragon pode até não escapar com vida...
Emoção e aventura aguardam os leitores no segundo volume do Ciclo A Herança.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This phone-book size second helping in Paolini's planned Inheritance Trilogy picks up with the battle-scarred but conquering hero, first introduced in Eragon, and his dragon, Saphira. As the novel opens, the two are neck-deep in political intrigue over choosing a successor to replace Ajihad, the Varden's slain leader. The scope of the story expands when Eragon and Arya, the elfin ambassador he not-so-secretly lusts after, head to Ellesm ra so he can complete his training as a Rider. Eragon's cousin, Roran, makes a more perilous journey, leading the townspeople of Carvahall in pursuit of the villain Galbatorix and his cronies, who have kidnapped Roran's fianc e hoping to bait Eragon and Saphira. The narrative shifts occasionally to follow the troubles plaguing Nasuada, Ajihad's daughter, who now leads the Varden. Fans of the first volume will find even more of the same here: a wealth of descriptive detail, mythic archetypes and prolonged battle sequences. Here, the inspiration sometimes seems less Tolkien than Star Wars (Eragon says "Yes, Master" frequently). The most affecting element remains the tender relationship between dragon and Rider, and teens will empathize as the object of Eragon's affection (repeatedly) spurns him, his teacher humbles him and he struggles with questions about God and vegetarianism. Readers who persevere are rewarded with walloping revelations in the final pages, including the meaning of the title and the identity of the red dragon on the cover. The story leaves off with a promise To Be Continued. Ages 12-up.
