I've read these series before, but in Dutch. Started to read them again, and am pleasantly surprised (although I know I liked them before) by what's in the books.
Anyone of you guys who has read the books (the first one is titled Pawn of Prophecy)?

AWESOME series. [img]smile.gif[/img] Absolutely loved the Belgariad. Eddings is one of my favorite authors, along with Raymond Feist and George Martin.

A great read, Eddings has excellent characterization, even if subtlety isn't exactly his strong suit.

<font color="#f683ad"> I read the Belgariad and the Malorean and his stand alones Polgara and Belgarath.....I could not generate any interest in his other series though....
Since I loved the both the Belgariad and the Malorean I suppose someone will come along to explain how they were not artistic and low brow...but I enjoyed the hell out of them [img]smile.gif[/img] </font> |
