Review title: More of the same
Product review: David Eddings may be the most lazy author in print. All the "good natured bantering" in this book is lifted verbatim from the first book and endlessly repeated through the next nine. His characters are never in any real danger and calmly take on 2,3, or even 10 times their number with only a scratch or two. I wonder how the Angaraks could ever be considered a threat when the heroes dispose of them in such an offhand manner. The second five books have virtually the same plot as the first five. This series is like a bad song for me; I can't get it out of my head. And how about the companion who dies?! He chickened out and killed off the least interesting and important character. If you are looking for a good fantasy series, don't read this one. Try Tad Williams' "Memory, Sorrow and Thorn" or George R.R. Martin's "A Game of Thrones", which is looking like it will be a great series (people actually get hurt and die).
