Saphira Bjartskular by Joshua Raphael
Happy Sunday! June is a time of honor and celebration with World War II D Day, Flag Day, Father's day, Juneteenth, the summer solstice as well as Great Outdoors Month, Rose month, and National Adopt a Cat month.
Our dragon of the month is Saphira from Christopher Paolini's Eragon. I happily supported the Saphira Figurine kickstarter campaign last year and look forward to receiving a collectable figurine of Saphira when it's ready.
Christopher Paolini's Inheritance cycle includes Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr, and Inheritance and is a wonderful series about a farm boy who discovers a dragon egg and is thrust in a world of magic and power. Works set in the same world include Murtagh and The Fork, The Witch, and the Worm. Paolini's other works - To Sleep in a Sea of Stars and Fractal Noise - are amazing thriller stories set in outer space. He's also been involved in other works including the short stories anthology Guys Write for Guys Read which I recently acquired.
Join me in reading stories by Christopher Paolini this month!
