The astonishing, masterful conclusion to the Inheritance Cycle, perfect for fans of Lord of the Rings The New York Times bestselling series has sold over 35 million copies and is an international fantasy sensation.

Not so very long ago, Eragon--Shadeslayer, Dragon Rider--was nothing more than a poor farm boy, and his dragon, Saphira, only a blue stone in the forest. Now the fate of an entire civilization rests on their shoulders.

Long months of training and battle have brought victories and hope, but they have also brought heartbreaking loss. And still, the real battle lies ahead: they must defeat Galbatorix. There will be no second chances. The Rider and his dragon have come further than anyone dared to hope. But can they topple the evil king and restore justice to Alaga sia? And if so, at what cost?

Features interlocking art that reveals an image across the spines of all four books And don't miss the most recent book set in Eragon's world, The Fork, the Witch, and the Worm: Tales from Alaga sia
