This entire series is wonderful. One of the earlier "young boy discovers that he's more than he was led to believe" stories. A classic in the fantasy genre that pulls you into a great read. ( )

A bit weaker than the other books.I'm also a bit annoyed, so long as the "Light" wins, they need to win again and again, but any victory of the "Dark" would be sufficient. Or so it seems. ( )

This is book two of the Malloreon, the sequel series to the Belgariad. Some people complain that this series is just a repeat of the previous series with some of the names changed, and I certainly used to think that myself. Now that I've read this book again I think that's unfair -- the story line is actually quite different, and the characters are generally older and wiser (which makes them feel more developed). I enjoyed this book, probably more than I did Guardians of the West.

Excellent continuation of the story, though slightly repetitive of The Belgariad. ( )

See Guardians of the West. ( )
