Eragon - Behind the Story: Backstage Pass to Novels

Eragon is one of the best-selling children’s books of all time with three equally successful sequels. It’s even been made into a movie. However, to get there, Christopher Paolini and his family had to invest all their money and time, and overcome the challenge of promoting a first-time teenage author who gave up college to promote his book around the country. And in the end, it was a stroke of luck that he was discovered at all. Eragon has come a long way from the dream of home-schooled 15 year-old with a love of reading and a hobby of making his own chainmail, growing up in a remote corner of Montana. Join us as we explore the story of the novel you love and take you backstage for a fresh look at Eragon.
