Brisingr Summary #7

Eragon and Saphira fly from Du Weldenvarden to the city of Feinster to aid the Varden in recapturing the city from Galbatorix's forces. They first help by opening the city gates with aid from Brisingr. After fighting for a little bit, Arya, Eragon, and Saphira head up to the top teir of the city only to discover that the overwhelmed spell casters defending Feinster have made the decision to attempt to create another shade. In the first book Eragon kills a shade named Durza, and he was only the third to do it, with aid from Arya and Saphira. Despite their efforts to thwart them, the spellcasters create the shade, whom Arya kills, aided by Eragon. Meanwhile, Glaedr and Oromis fight Murtagh and Thorn above Gil' Ead. Oromis has a seizure in the air, and as a result, is killed, and Glaedr rampages Thorn, bites off the tip of his tail, an is killed. This concludes Brisingr, and another final novel will follow

Brisingr Summary #6

Eragon completes his sword, which he names Brisingr and discovers that whenever he utters his sword's name, it bursts into fire. After this, he flys back to Oromis and Glaedr to discover that they are both flying to battle in Gil' Ead. Glaedr bestows upon Eragon, his heart of hearts (the being of a dragon, and the source of all of Galbatorix's power) so that they can always communicate. After this, they part ways at the border of Du Weldenvarden, each to battle.

Brisingr Summary #5

Eragon decides he will be spending the night at Du Weldenvarden, even though he is long overdue to return to the Varden. He also learns about the source of Galbatorix's power, the hearts of deceased dragons that still emit energy. After this immense discovery, Eragon and Saphira fly to a large tree called the Menoa Tree to look for a weapon, that is said to be hidden there. Discovering nothing, Eragon then heads to an Elven household to discover the old dragon rider's sword there does not work with his fighting style, so he goes to an old smith who tells him to look for a certain type of metal from a shooting star. Convinced that the metal is hidden under the Menoa Tree, he and Saphira provoke the tree into giving it to them. After they return to the smith with the metal, they work all night and forge Eragon a new sword.

Brisingr Summary #4

In this summary, I will first tell of what Eragon's brother Roran did, then Eragon's dragon, Saphira, and then Eragon himself. Roran accompanies a raid on a village captured by the empire, and after the boneheaded general he is under the command of almost gets them killed, Roran takes control of matters. Roran uses superior tactical skill, bravery, and leadership to defy his captain, beat the enemy, and slay nearly two hundred soldiers himself. This act of insubordination gets Roran literally tied to the whipping post in the end, taking fifty lashes, only so he could stay in the Varden. Directly after his flaying, Roran leads a force of half Urgals, and half men to do a small raid with purposes to unite the two races further. This is successful, until Roran provokes one of the Rams (term for a male Urgal) into a duel for dominance over the tribe. Roran wins, and all is settled. In the meantime, Saphira is getting bored around the Varden, with only a fake apparition of Eragon, cast to mislead possible spies as to Eragon's absence, to keep her company. She eventually hears of Eragon's attempted assassination, and flies for three days and nights straight to reach him. All the while, Eragon vows to avenge the murderers of his guard, and with the combined forces of Orik, they banish the clan responsible. Orik is elected king, and is crowned by a strange being, summoned in the ancient language, apparently a dwarven god. After the coronation, Eragon and Saphira fly directly to Du Weldenvarden (the realm of the elves) to seek guidance from Boromis, Eragon's master, on how to defeat Galbatorix. Instead, Eragon learns of his genealogy, discovering his actual father was not the evil Morzan, but his ex-guide, Brom. Even though brom is now dead, this knowledge helped Eragon understand himself better.

Brisingr Summary #3

Eragon arrives at the dwarven city of Farthen Dur, to discover that his Dwarf foster brother, Orik, has been replaced as clan leader since the demise of the previous one. This placing Orik in the running for the king of Farthen Dur, Eragon is flung into a world of politics as he agrees to back Orik as long as he keeps a wise head about when to back out, and to use Eragon's backing to nominate a Varden-friendly king. After one incredibly boring political discussion, Eragon wanders into a deadly assassination trap set for him. Eragon barely escapes the trap, discovering the identity of his assailants, and raising suspicions about which clan may have ordered the attack.

Brisingr Summary #2

After dark, Eragon sneaks out of the Varden's campground very stealthily, and runs until he rendezvous with his companion for the trip to Farthen Dur, the leader of the formidable race of Kull. They run together for two days and nights straight (Eragon is part elf, and Kull have the stamina of a bear combined with a Canadian hockey player.) After this, the Kull leaves Eragon, and Eragon completes the last leg of the journey to Farthen Dur.

Brisingr Summary #1

Brisingr starts out with Eragon and his newly reunited cousin Roran seiging Helgrind, the home of the elusive Ra'zac. After their seige, Roran leaves with Eragon's dragon, Saphira on his way back to the rebel movement against the Empire, The Varden. Once Eragon rendevous with Roran and Saphira, the Empire attack with an army of soldiers that can't feel pain accompanied by Eragon's evil brother, Murtagh and his dragon, Thorn. Once Eragon drives Thorn and Murtagh off, Roran marries his beloved Katrina, and Eragon sets off to the dwarf city of Farthen Dur to oversee the election of the new Dwarf king.
