I read this series every couple of years. While not very taxing and much can be figured out before hand, I still find it very enjoyable and an easy read. The lead character, Sparhawk, reminds me of what a John Wayne would be as a Holy Knight. David Eddings is very good with conjuring up characters that most can relate to and recognize, so after a few pages the reader will think they already know them. He is very good with his wit, even if he over uses some phrases and characteristics. If you are looking for an easy read that you can immerse yourself into right away, I would highly recommend this one.

This book was okay but not near as good as the Belgariad books or the Mallorean or "Belgarath The Sorcerer".

Enjoyable, but if you've read the Belgariad, there are a lot of similarities here.
