Eldest Part 2

While Eragon leaves the dwarves' land to get more battle training, the dwarf king adopts Eragon as a honorary member of his family. The Varden the leader of the resistance is being moved to the free land of Surda so they can plan a organized attack against Galbatorix. Meanwhile, Roran, Eragaon's brother is returning to his hometown of Carvahall. The town is being searched by the Ra'zac, Galbatorix's agents. They are looking for Roran, because he might have the locations of Eragon. When they can't find him they take his lover, Katrina. Roran is furious and launches an attack to go find Katrina. Meanwhile Eragon has taken his training to the next level. He is in the elven capital city, Ellesmera, where he will buff his fighting techniques.

This book is an all round amazing book, with twists and turns throughout. I highly recommend it, but it is the second novel in the series, so read Eragon first.
