Eddings strikes again

I am surprised that there are still so many complaints about repetition and and slow plot by the fourth book, if you dislike this kind of writing you might have stopped at the second or third. Eddings makes it very clear in the beginning exactly how long the quest is going to be, how many characters will die, and even whether or not the heroes will succeed (at least in reaching their destination). I've never seen another author manage to do that and still keep a grip on his readers. There is definitely a sense of humour in how he lets things happen over and over again in opportune moments. Even those who complain about the repetition probably haven't noticed half the things in the book that ties back and forth and even across to other series. Noting some of these is really quite fun. Thirdly, this is obviously not a book about gory battles of demons and clashing armies. All of us enjoy those books at times, but we also need something to read under lamplight just before sleep. Eddings usually keeps me awake for hours. If there is one complaint I have to make, it is that Eddings needs to work on his olde English, it's not very convincing.

The end is near

Who is Zandramas? Well this book is a lot about her and where she comes from. Garion must hurry to meet her at the correct time and place to stop her from becoming a new Torak. Can he do it. This book only took me two days to read it which says a lot because I am a very busy person. I think you will finish it just as fast.

The Ending of a saga...

I love all of David Eddings's books. This was a really good series. The only thing was that I got a little tired of Ce'Nedra's hysterics, and I would have liked to know more about what happened with Silk and Velvet. But otherwise it was a wonderful book(and series)

Master of Fantasy

David Eddings is the master of fantasy. I have read the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. I have read so many fiction books that sometimes i confuse fantasy and reality but I know a great book when i read it and David Eddings books are just that. They have all the elements of fiction Magic, Sorcery, Intiuge, Creatures that exist nowhere else, and a world with a past and present so finely detailed that you swear its almost real... if you could only find the door. Some claim his books are predictable that good always wins but if some thing wasnt just a little bit predictable we would all probly take to our beds to frightened to go on.We all belive Belgarion and the Orb will win and good will once again prevail but again and agian our minds fill with doubt as Eddings tests that belief. If we all wernt so fascinated with the series and the doubts it gives us we would have stopped reading long ago. But we havent stopped .That alone speaks for it self.

David Eddings makes me want to puke.

David Eddings makes me wanna puke, i can't think of a higher compliment. But i must say one thing about the people who think they are fantasy experts and that eddings sucks, may be the problem all you people who give eddings' books one star, maybe the problem is YOU suck, ever think of that? i have never read books as intriguing as eddings', they are simply wonderful.
