About this listen

Discover the epic story that inspired thousands-from Raymond Feist's The Riftwar Cycle series to George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones.

The Accursed One isn't dead . . .

He only sleeps . . .

The evil God Torak covets dominion over all men. If the stolen Orb of Aldur reaches him, he will surely gain what he desires.

Garion travels through strange lands with master sorcerers Belgarath and Polgara in frantic pursuit of the Orb. But as his own powers grow, Garion starts to realize that he too may have a part to play-a part he isn't sure he wants . . .

Fantastic revist to my childhood

It was wonderful getting to revisit my childhood with the books that started my love of reading.

The new narrator.

The new narrator was perfectly fine. I just miss the old narrator. He brought out all of the humor in the story. It was so much more enjoyable.

OMG

This was even more exciting to listen to this time around. I listened to C.B. And I thought he had great talent but Mr. Wiggins was super surprising cause I didn't think it could get any better. Thank you for doing such a great job bringing this masterpiece to life. Thank you again, I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Still a classic

I have read these for years and having the option to listen as I drive was wonderful. These stories are so rich and layered. Brian Wiggins was a wonderful choice for narrator as he adds to the stories and is able to perform multiple distinct voices which adds to the overall story

Playful and serious

The differentiation between when things were lighthearted and gravely serious was executed perfectly. The gravity of certain situations was definitely captured correctly.

The narrator was very distracting

I loved these books when I first read them 30 years ago. They are good fun. A little flawed here and there but generally a good time. The characters are the best part. The narration sapped all of the fun out of them. His delivery didn't capture the charm of the characters. Even worse, the accents he used were inconsistent and distracting. All of the tough guys sound straight out of the Bronx, no matter what country they are from.

Incredibly Well Done

Brian Wiggins was incredible and actually brought some of my all time favorite characters to life!!! I have been waiting years and years for a decent audio book of The Belgariad and Malloreon series, and this over delivers!!! I am patiently waiting the remaining books and will order them all. Please, please, please continue with the fantastic work. I cannot say enough about the amazing writing and world building of David Eddings, other than to commend the narrator for bringing this story to life!

Bad narrator

The Belgaraid used to be one of my favorites. However they have changed the narrator and have ruined it. Read the books instead.
