Enchanter's Endgame. Book Five. The Belgariad. David Eddings. Fantasy

Enchanter's Endgame. Book Five. The Belgariad. David Eddings. Fantasy
Enchanter's Endgame. Book Five. The Belgariad. David Eddings. Fantasy

 I'm enjoying "Enchanter's Edgame" Book Five of The Belgariad by David Eddings.

 

 The fifth and final novel of The Belgariad. The ancient Mrin Codex foretold the battle between of the heir to the Rivan throne and the evil God Torak, which will decide the fate of the world. Garion, the Rivan heir, is far from ready to face Torak, who is awakening from a long, enforced sleep. Garion, Belgarath and their wily friend Silk slip out of the castle without telling anyone to travel to where this final confrontation will take place. A story of endurance, valor, loyalty and love by one of the most popular fantasy writers of all time. "Eddings' BELGARIAD is exactly the kind of fantasy I like. It has magic, adventure, humor, mystery, and a certain delightful human insight." - Piers Anthony on PAWN OF PROPHECY "Absorbing. Touches all the right Fantasy bases. Warring gods, political intrigues, supernatural creatures, and appealingly human magicians." - Publishers Weekly on QUEEN OF SORCERY "A graceful, fluid style of storytelling rare in fantasy writing.” - Publishers Weekly about the author: David Eddings published his first novel, HIGH HUNT, in 1973, before turning to the field of fantasy with The Belgariad, which hit the New York Times bestseller lists, as did his Malloreon series, The Elenium and The Tamuli series. Born in Spokane, Washington, he served in the United States Army and taught college English. His wife Leigh Eddings collaborated with her husband for more than a dozen years on numerous bestsellers.

Castle of Wizardry. Book Four. The Belgariad. David Eddings. Fantasy

Castle of Wizardry. Book Four. The Belgariad. David Eddings. Fantasy

 I'm Enjoying "Castle of Wizardry" Book Four of The Belgariad by David Eddings.

 

 A magnificent epic set against a history of seven thousand years of the struggles of Gods and Kings and men - of strange lands and events - of fate and a prophecy that must be fulfilled!

THE BELGARIAD

It had all begun with the theft of the Orb that had so long protected the West from the evil God Torak. Before that, Garion had been a simple farm boy. Afterward, he discovered that his aunt was really the Sorceress Polgara and his grandfather was Belgarath, the Eternal Man. Then, on the long quest to recover the Orb, Garion found to his dismay that he, too, was a sorcerer.

Now, at last, the Orb was regained and the quest was nearing its end. Of course, the questors still had to escape from this crumbling enemy fortress and flee across a desert filled with Murgo soldiers searching for them, while Grolim Hierarchs strove to destroy them with dark magic. Then, somehow, they must manage to be in Riva with the Orb by Erastide.

After that, however, Garion was sure that his part in these great events would be finished.

But the Prophecy still held future surprises for Garion - and for the little Princess Ce'Nedra!

THUS CONTINUES BOOK FOUR OF THE BELGARIAD

Magician's Gambit. Book Three. The Belgariad. David Eddings. Fantasy

 I'm enjoying "Magician's Gambit" Book Three of The Belgariad by David Eddings.

 

 Garion, Belgarath, Polgara and their companions face new challenges as they continue their quest to retrieve the stolen Orb before it can be delivered to the evil god Torak.When they reach the mile-high tower of Ctuchik, who has the Orb and whose followers practice Torak's cruel rites of human sacrifice, Belgarath must use all his strength, guile and sorcery as he faces his most fearsome enemy. Garion's strange powers continue to grow, as he plays an increasingly crucial role in this world's future. "Eddings' BELGARIAD is exactly the kind of fantasy I like. It has magic, adventure, humor, mystery, and a certain delightful human insight."- Piers Anthony on PAWN OF PROPHECY"Absorbing. Touches all the right Fantasy bases.

Elric of Melnibone. The Elric Saga. Volume One. Michael Moorcock. Fantasy

 I'm enjoying "Elric of Melnibone" Violume One of The Elric Saga by Michael Moorcock.

 

From World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement Award winner Michael Moorcock comes the first book in his famous Elric of Melniboné series, brought to vivid new life with stunning illustrations.

In one of the most well-known and well-loved fantasy epics of the 20th century, Elric is the brooding, albino emperor of the dying Kingdom of Melnibone. With Melnibone’s years of grandeur and decadence long since passed, Elric’s amoral cousin Yrkoon sets his eyes on the throne. Elric, realizing he is his country’s best hope, must face his nefarious cousin in an epic battle for the right to rule.

Elric of Melnibone is the first in Michael Moorcock’s incredible series, which created fantasy archetypes that have echoed through the genre for generations. The beautiful, vivid illustrations bring new life to the story and are sure to captivate fans, new and old.
