In Eragon, did you enjoy ...

... a young hero’s quest and journey toward a great goal?

The Name Of The Wind by Patrick Rothfuss

If you loved following Eragon's determined quest and the driving force of his mission, you'll be swept away by Kvothe's journey in The Name of the Wind. Kvothe's pursuit of knowledge, vengeance, and his place in the world offers a similarly compelling, goal-driven plot that will keep you turning pages late into the night.

... characters who grow and transform through adversity?

Mistborn: The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson

If Eragon's transformation from a farm boy to a powerful Dragon Rider captivated you, you'll find Vin's journey in Mistborn: The Final Empire equally enthralling. Watching Vin evolve from a street urchin into a confident and formidable Mistborn is a deeply satisfying experience for fans of strong character growth.

... vast, sweeping worlds and epic storylines?

The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson

Sabriel by Garth Nix

If the structured rules and complexities of magic in Eragon drew you in, Sabriel will enchant you with its unique Charter Magic. Watching Sabriel navigate the perilous Old Kingdom with her magical abilities and necromancer's bells is a treat for anyone who loves a well-defined magic system.

... richly imagined worlds with deep histories, cultures, and lore?

The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien
