Negative Positive
Title: Yechh...
Review: This could have been a cool story. Could have. That is, if it weren't so liberally punctuated with the bad humor that has become Eddings' trademark. We don't really get to know the characters, with the exception of only a few scenes, and the story is just one rehashing of Belgarath and Polgara being Great Sorcerers after another. Boring. The more he extends a series, the worse it gets (same with Sparhawk). So stick with the books from the beginning.
