There's not much I can say about this final book that I haven't said before about its predecessors. I love these books, they are brilliantly written and although at times a bit slow or stereotypical, they are also amusing, at times endearing, and they keep the reader on his/her toes throughout the story. The characters are lovable and the plot is good. This was the third time I have read these books and I noticed that I read them differently every time, which is also partly why they are favourites of mine. I'm glad I read them once again and I still recommend this entire series, consisting of both the Belgariad and the Mallorean, to anyone who likes to read some light, exciting, and fun fantasy - especially when you, like myself, have a thing for quests.
