Our latest series, Encyclopedia Alagaësia, offers a comprehensive look at Brom the Storyteller and Ellesméra, the elves’ homeland. You can find other exciting tidbits, including details on Saphira’s parents, elven space travel, and Galbatorix’s final spell in our Q&A archive.

And check out some of Christopher’s prized gifts from fans – a replica of Zar’roc, his Book of Fans, and an assortment of dragon figurines.
A New Frontier
Our announcement of Christopher’s next project, a sci-fi novel, sparked a wave of theorizing and discussions. Will it take place within our universe? Will there be aliens? What about dragons in space?!
While he’s chosen to keep the plot a surprise, he has teased us with comments about spaceships, lasers, explosions, and strange new planets. And it’s fun to see photos of his growing manuscript on Twitter each time he adds a new chapter.
These highlights are just a small glimpse into goodies found throughout our website. Have a look around – you’re bound to discover something exciting!
