Summary
No one likes that dragons went extinct. No one likes that dodos are extinct either. Or passenger pigeons. Or Tasmanian Tigers. Or Wooly Mammoths or anything else further back.
But some people can’t drop it.
No one knows the exact date. It was pre-camera, the late seventeenth century is the best bet. Every year some crazy person claims to have seen a dragon in the woods, and inevitably it always ends up being a bear, or a rock, or a weird looking tree.
In the past 20 years, over 300 works of art having to do with dragons have been reported stolen. Some from private collections, some from museums. A lot of them paintings cut out of their frames with what appears to be a small knife. Skeletons, carved dragon-ivory knick knacks. Notably, a suit of medieval armor which appeared to be fireproofed with dragon scales.
All of it gone. None of it ever seen again.

Summary
If he was really considering taking a break from school to figure things out, Callum would certainly rather do it here than back home with all the pressure and expectations.
It was... all without making a single conscious decision, it felt, that he had gotten here. But here he was, asking for ‘Rayla’, his maybe-future-housemate, if… he actually went through with this extended fugue state he was experiencing and if she would have him of course and… it was nuts but… here he was.
And here she was, walking towards his table.

Summary
In a world where the border between the east and west never truly existed, humans and elves live along side each other, but not together.
Years ago, Callum made an unlikely friend, one he thought long lost to time. By chance, their paths cross again, but considering how much they’ve both changed, is it possible to rekindle their friendship? Or have their differences become too much to overcome?

Summary
The world is settling into a new era of peace, with the Truce between humans and elves now solidified by an Alliance. Not everyone is happy with the terms, or the freedom of movement between each side of the continent, but most are embracing the knowledge and skills their neighbours have to offer. After the efforts it took to help the Alliance become reality, Callum and Rayla both take some time to decompress, and think on what they both want for the future.
Sequel to A Brave New World.

Summary
The war has ended. Eragon is more determined than ever to rebuild the order of the dragon riders and create a lasting peace for all of Alagaesia. However, when Murtagh chooses to stay in the Broddring Kingdom at Nasuada's side, their hard won peace is thrown into jeopardy. With such tumultuous forces at play, Eragon has no choice but to stay in Alagaesia to protect the world he bled to create. Meanwhile, Arya struggles with her past and hopes for her future. Her wants war with her duty and conflict comes from all sides–her mother, her people, and even Eragon.
(An AU where everyone sticks around in Alagaesia instead of peacing out. Also Islandzadi lives.)
