To my surprise, it will
be Eragon
that kicks off the weekend updates. I recently received a ton of emails
this morning including those from 'Luthor' and 'Eldar' explaining that Saphira
may have finally slowed up to allow her picture to be taken.
Well, not exactly, but here the dragon is!
Eragon Tie-In Cover with Saphira
Here is the report sent over by 'Luthor':
Random House is set to release a movie tie-in version of Eragon
on October 24, 2006 for $6.99 USD. The cover of this tie-in can be seen
at Random House.
An image of Saphira, perhaps a shadow since she is silver, can be seen in the background of this book cover.
From the book summary on the Random House website, it appears to be the
Deluxe Edition of Eragon, which features an "excerpt from Eldest,
the next volume in the Inheritance trilogy; an exclusive foldout map of
Alagaësia; never-before-seen art by the author depicting Zar'roc, Eragon's
sword; and an expanded pronunciation guide to the Ancient and Dwarf languages."
Eragon
What do you think? The dragon looks huge! If you
look close you can see that she does have little hints of blue.
Eragon comes to theatres on December 15th.

info and a full synopsis, go to the Eragon
Movie Page.
