  3. Vantage Point • The setting of Eragon takes place in a land with a terra setting known as Alagaesia.

  4. Vantage Point • The book is set in the past that is based solely on fiction. The estimated year if it were actual reality would probably be somewhere between 1000 to 1100 A.D.

  5. Vantage Point • For the length of the book, Eragon was travelling all over Alagaesia. So there were many different Vantage points, like deserts, forest, port cities, mountains, etc.

  6. Characters • Major (Round) characters: Eragon, Saphira, Brom, Durza, Galbatorix, Ra’zak • Minor (Flat) characters: The Twins, Roran, Orik, Nasuada, Angelina, and many more.

  7. Characters • Major Protagonist (Good Guy): Eragon is the main protagonist, although he has a lot of help along the way. • Major Antagonist (Bad Guy): Galbatorix is the one that the Varden are fighting, but it’s actually Durza who leads most of the fight throughout the novel.

  8. Characters • While the main antagonist is Galbotorix, he is rarely heard of and never actually seen. For the most of the book Eragon is more concerned of killing the Ra’zak, and not the king.

  9. Conflict Man Vs. Self Eragon is about to a slave at an auction, but is forced to stop when he realizes he and the slave would be captured and possibly killed.

  10. Conflict • Man Vs. Society • The Varden against Galbatorix, he gets everything while the poor and needy get nothing, Eragon and the Varden want to change this.

  11. Conflict • Man Vs. Man • The entire book is based on a coming war and how Eragon is being trained while tracking two of the King’s hit men.

  12. Conflict • Man Vs. Supernatural • The book is based around a farm boy discovering a dragon, so, really, the whole book is Eragon fighting the super natural.

  13. Conflict • Man Vs. Nature • When Eragon enters the desert and there is a massive storm that hinders his progress through the desert.

  14. Plot • The book is based around a king who abused his power and now the world is trying to get back at him. This is where Eragon falls into place, as the side who controls the riders controls the continent.

  15. Plot • At the start of the book is centered around a bizarre rock that hatches into a Dragon for Eragon. Then his farm is burnt to the ground and his uncle slaughtered, Eragon decides to set out for revenge with the help of Brom, the town bard.

  16. Plot • For most of the book, Eragon is tracking the king’s main assassin’s, they are called the Ra’zak. When the Ra’zak ambush Eragon, he is forced to go to the Varden.

  17. Point of View • The point of view is 3rd person, you follow Eragon and sometimes Saphira around.
