At this point in the saga, I have to admit it's getting a bit tedious. It's endlessly light in tone (even when people are kidnapped, killed, etc...) the characters are cartoonish, and never seem to grow or change, no matter what's happening to them, gender stereotypes are rampant, and everyone just keeps questing along endlessly....
The first part of this, The Belgariad, also has nearly an identical plot to the second part, The Malloreon. It's like Eddings couldn't think of a new plot, so it's like, "hey characters, guess what, you're going to have to do it all over again!" Sigh.
