Publisher's summary

It all began with the theft of the Orb that protected the West from the evil God Torak. Before that, Garion had been a simple farm boy. Afterward, he discovered he is a sorcerer. Now, at last, the Orb has been regained, and the quest nears it end. Of course, the questors must still escape from a crumbling enemy fortress, flee across a desert filled with Murgo soldiers, and avoid the Grolim Hierarchs seeking to destroy them with dark magic. After that, Garion feels assured, his part would be finished. But the Prophesy still holds several surprises for Garion, and for the Imperial Princess Ce'Nedra.

Captivating characters and excellent humor

David Eddings creates captivating characters. I'm always left wanting the next book. I've read this series multiple times and decided go get the audio books for driving. The narrator does a good job bouncing in between so many conversations characters and thoughts. I really appreciate having the same narrator through the 4 books thusfar as well.

Voices

Listen to the voice and imagine a world like this. I think that C. B. was brilliant and masterful in his rendition of this story. There however is much to be said about Mr. Wiggins. He is bright, dynamic, and well spoken on every level. Thank you for doing such a fine job on the performance. This is a winner!

Fantastic voice acting

I like the approach on how Ulgo’s are voiced, and how Ce’Nedra is perfectly captured in tone/inflections. Character feelings are read spot on and other than things being pronounced slightly differently than how I imagined them, I have no quarrels. I’m VERY much looking forward to Enchaters End Game

The terrible narration

I’m so sad this book has been ruined by the new narrator. He just doesn’t get the characters right
