Darkness falls...
Swords clash...
Evil reigns.
Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have just saved the rebel state from destruction by the mighty forces of King Galbatorix, cruel ruler of the Empire. Now Eragon must travel to Ellemera, land of the elves, for further training in magic and swordsmanship, the vital skills of the Dragon Rider.
It is the journey of a lifetime, filled with awe-inspiring new places and people, each day a fresh adventure. But chaos and betrayal plague him at every turn, and Eragon isn't sure who he can trust.
Meanwhile, his cousin Roran must fight a new battle back home in Carvahall - one that puts Eragon in even graver danger.
Will the King's dark hand strangle all resistance? Eragon may not escape with even his life...

Random listing from 'Books'...
Walter and Manaaki are teenage takahe. They are curious. They are adventurous. They are TROUBLESOME!
In October 2019, a wayward takahe couple was recaptured ten days after escaping from their predator-free sanctuary at Tawharanui Regional Park. Their adventure provided the inspiration for Sally Sutton's humorous story.
Children will delight in the cheeky and daring spirit of Walter and Manaaki. The book is beautifully illustrated by Jenny Cooper, and includes interesting facts about the takahe at the end of the story.
