Eragon Eragon is the first novel in the Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini. After writing the first draft for a year, Paolini spent a second year rewriting and fleshing out the story and characters. His parents saw the final manuscript and in 2001 decided to self-publish "Eragon;" Paolini spent a year traveling around the United States promoting the novel. By chance, the book was discovered by Carl Hiaasen, who got it re-published by Alfred A. Knopf. The re-published version was released on August 26, 2003.
Legacy of Cain The Legacy of Cain (German: "Das Vermächtnis Kains" ; sometimes translated as "Heritage of Cain") is an unfinished cycle of novellas by the 19th century Austrian author Leopold von Sacher-Masoch. His original plan was to group various novellas into 6 volumes, each of which was titled according to its central theme; those are "Love", "Property", "State", "War", "Work", and "Death". Only the first two volumes, "Love" (1870) and "Property", (1877) were completed. By the middle of the 1880s, Masoch abandoned the grandiose idea of "The Legacy of Cain", although some of the novellas intended for the cycle had been published.
