Chapter 19 Eragon
The Eragon is a book about a boy named Eragon who finds a dragon’s egg in a forest in the mountains. He takes the role as a Dragon Rider because he wants revenge on the people who killed his uncle and destroyed his farm.
     This chapter is about Eragon and his guardian Brom who goes into a village named Yazuac to get fresh supplies water, food etc. But when they reach the main village its seems abandoned so Eragon goes to the center of the village to see that all of it’s inhabitants has been brutally massacred and Eragon sees a new born child impaled on a spear at this sight Eragon gets sickened by the sight of such cruelty and such evil. At this moment Brom comes in and inspects the area surrounding the bodies and Brom said the people they are looking for didn’t do that but a clan of monsters named urgals which look like muscular pig bulls  did then he exclaimed to Eragon RUN!! There are still urgals in the town and at this moment two urgals shows up one punches Eragon right off his horse and slams into a wall crumpled in a daze Eragon stands up but the urgal is about to pin him down then he sees that Brom got knocked off his horse blood trickling down his head at this sight Eragon shots an arrow at the urgal to draw his attention away from Brom which he did but ends up getting trapped at a dead end during this moment Eragon gets filled with immense anger and he refused to die there so he notched an arrow and yelled Brisingr!! (Fire) at this command his arrow in flames and contacts with one Urgal and incinerated both of them after this Eragon feels very tired and weak then he collapses.
     My personal reaction was I could feel Eragons anger from seeing what he did especially a new born baby impaled on the end of a spear if I saw that I would feel exactly like Eragon a combination of anger, disgust, and sorrow .
    I believe the authors intent was to get u to feel the anger the disgust and the sorrow Eragon did in this chapter the organizational pattern was cause and effect because from Eragon seeing all the dead bodies cause him to feel anger, disgust and sorrow and by utilizing these feelings he killed the two urgals and saved himself and Brom.

  1. chapter 19 of Eragon was really suspenseful on how a newborn was impaled by a spear to being attacked by Urgals. I do agree on how the author's intent was to make the reader feel anger and disgust on such horrible event. I would rate this review a 5 becuase it was straight forward on the summary, author's intent and its personal reaction.
