I read the Bellgraid and the Malloreon about 10 years ago now, so my memory isn't up to a synopsis of the series or anything, but I did highly enjoy them then, they still grace my shelves now, and I hope to reread them in the near future.

These books are great for the reader that enjoys fantasy series reading (so if you prefer a one off, try something else). They develop an amazing story and history that kept me engaged. The two series are intimately related/connected. The world is more of...more

Third book of the 2nd 5 book series (The first being the Belgariad).

Where it is discovered that those who are technically your foes .. Are also just humans. Though ...more

The Mallorean, ... the followup to the Belgariad series is just as crucial to the story as the first part of the series is. It goes past the initial story of the little boy to after he's performed his initial task and goes into his life with his new queen. The story still follows and interesting plot of what fate has in store for these characters and the duties they continue to have to perform to save mankind from being controlled by evil. it's still awesome.

the sequel series to the belgariad, amazing still!! i have read this series about 5/6 times and i still love it every single time!!! you can never get tired of eddings' sarcastic humour, or his vivid descriptions. this book made me realise that no matter how insignificant you may feel at a particular point in your life, you will achieve a greatness that is suited to your personaility and character.

cheesy rubbish i know, but just read it!!

I have enjoyed reading <u>Demon Lord of Karanda<u>, the last in the trilogy of David Eddings Malloreon saga. The unique way that magic is employed, and the campy humor makes the book good for light reading, but there is not a lot of depth to the characters.

Even though it is a light read, it is one of my favorite sagas. I recommend it for anyone looking for a fun light hearted story.

And then we have the book where Our Heroes tromp all over the (eastern) continent, killing time until book four.

Just enjoy the witty banter along the way.

I read the Mallorean many years ago, and although I recall at least the gist of most books I've read, I draw a blank for this series. I think it's the equivalent of a popcorn action-adventure flick. Fun if you've read the Belgariad, but forgettable.

These books were my favorite when I was in high school. I read them over and over, I especially loved the characters and the humor. I keep them around as they are old friends.

A continuation of the story of the Belgariad. As enjoyable to read as the first series.
