The fantasy classic is finally available again - in a revised new edition. New York Times bestselling author David Eddings was not only one of the heroes of fantasy readers in the 1980s, but he also serves as a role model for many of today's successful fantasy authors. Reading the Belgariad saga feels like reuniting with friends. The characters in this heroic coming-of-age fantasy quickly win your heart, and together with them, you explore a wonderful world and engage in the epic battle between good and evil. The naive country boy, the noblest knight, the cleverest thief, the most powerful wizard - who else could save the world?.
