*A purchase of Murtagh is required to enter the signing line.
Christopher Paolini presents Murtagh, the latest installment in his blockbuster “Inheritance Cycle,” with over 33 million copies in print. In March 2023, Money magazine ranked the cycle, the 13th biggest-selling fantasy series of all time. In 2011, Paolini was named the youngest author of a bestselling book series by the Guinness Book of World Records— the first book, Eragon, was begun in 1998 when the author was only 15 years old. The new book, Murtagh, tells the story of the Dragon Rider—and fan favorite—Murtagh and his dragon, Thorn, as they confront a perilous new enemy.
Presented in partnership with The Book House of Stuyvesant Plaza and cosponsored by the UAlbany Honors College.
