Title: DON'T try to be funny
Review: To be fair, I'll admit that by the time I read this book, I already wasn't into David Eddings anymore. Still, I USED to like the Balgariad. After readings this book I've come up with a rule: never get to in to things. Belgarath was one of my favorite characters up to the "Malorian." Now he just seems stupid. If someone can live that long without learning anything, he MUST be. Maybe David Eddings never spoke to old people, and so doesn't realize that years themselves - even if nothing tangable is acheived - make a differance. Also, through this book Eddings managed to do the nearly impossable task of taking out any element of magic and mistery that remained.. An amazing talent, but one, I hope, that will not be wide spread
