Her hair streaked white by her father's first touch, her mind guided by a mother she will not see again for centuries, Polgara begins life in her Uncle Beldin's tower, and in the prehistorical, magical Tree that stands in the middle of the Vale. There, she first learns the reaches of her powers. There she assumes the bird shapes that will serve her on her adventures. And there she starts on the path toward her destiny as Duchess of Erat, shepherdess of the cause of good, adversary of Torak the One-Eyed Dragon God, and guardian of the world's last, best hope: the heir to the Rivan throne.

Here is the legendary life story of a woman of wit, passion, and complex emotions, a woman born of two majestic parents who could not have been more unlike one another. Ordained to make peace and make war, to gain love and lose love, Polgara lives out her family's rich prophecy in the ceaseless struggle between the Light and the Dark.

Polgara is the epic culmination of a magnificent saga, and a fitting farewell to a world which, once experienced, will never be forgotten.]]> 1997 4 0 false Sun Oct 25 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 25 09:03:35 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 25 09:07:52 -0700 2009 more...]]> 71702471 2606430 18884 0345422554 9780345422552 79 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1167117813m/18884.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1167117813s/18884.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18884.Polgara_the_Sorceress 3.89 3261 1997 3 0 false Fri Sep 18 14:23:45 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 18 14:26:59 -0700 2009 more...]]> 59698508 1242515 937949 0586213147 9780586213148 3 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1179628847m/937949.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1179628847s/937949.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/937949.Polgara_the_Sorceress 3.77 26
