Title: Pretty Pointless
Product review: Yes, I liked the first 5 books. I felt the next 5 were milked for all they were worth (the story could have been told in 2 volumes without all the padding). Belgarath's story was pretty interesting. BUT this last one is disappointing. The only new thing to tell was Polgara's stay in Arendia, which reads a lot like a Harlequin romance. There are lots of inconsistencies among these books, especially in describing the magical powers. Sometimes magic can do certain things, and sometimes it can't. Another point that has always bugged me is: shouldn't it be Beldurnik now that Durnik is a disciple?
