The Belgariad is an epic fantasy of immense scope, telling the tale of struggles between ancient Gods and mighty Kings, and of men in strange lands facing fated events, all bound by a prophecy that must be fulfilled.

The quest was over. The Orb of Aldur was restored. And once again, with the crowning of Garion, there was a descendant of Riva Iron-grip to rule as Overlord of the West. And yet the prophecy was unfulfilled. In the east, the evil God Torak was about to awaken and seek dominion. Somehow, Garion had to face the God, to kill or be killed. On the outcome of that dread duel rested the destiny of the world. Now, accompanied by his grandfather, the ancient sorcerer Belgarath, Garion headed toward the City of Endless Night, where Torak awaited him. To the south, his young fiancee, the Imperial Princess Ce'Nedra, led the armies of the West in a desparate effort to divert the forces of Torak's horde away from the man she loved. The prophecy drove Garion on, but it gave no answ

This series is the fantasy I recommend for people who don't like fantasy. I particularly like that the characters change over time, something which happens too rarely in most high fantasy. ( )

Ebbene, la serie è finita, andate in pace. Questo è più o meno ciò che ho pensato arrivata alla conclusione di La fine del gioco. Tutto è bene quel che finisce bene – soprattutto se è senza sorprese.

O meglio, forse la sorpresa avrebbe dovuto esserci, ma non mi ha impressionata più di tanto. Un viaggio molto lungo per arrivare al dunque, tanti e complessi preparativi perché la famosa Profezia “buona” si compisse e poi? Il povero – si fa per dire – Torak viene liquidato con pochi colpi di spada e qualche frasetta sprezzante. Cascano le braccia al pensiero di averlo temuto per quasi cinque libri, questo feroce Signore del Male.

Dalla parte dei buoni, sono rimasta parimenti sconcertata da Garion. Il ragazzo si prepara ad affrontare Torak per la resa dei conti e se la fa sotto dalla fifa. Un lettore si aspetta che maturi, che succeda qualcosa nella sua testolina che lo renda pronto a fronteggiare un dio. Niente. È all'incirca lo stesso Garion che è partito dalla fattoria di Faldor. Tanto ci pensa la Profezia a diventare ciarliera e a spiegargli quello che deve fare; al resto pensa l'Occhio. Mah.

La sua futura moglie, dal canto suo, passa con disinvoltura dall'essere una bambina viziata – e, francamente, insopportabile – a radunatrice d'eserciti. Tuttavia, penso che, facendo una media, la parti in cui è una bambina viziata prevalgano. Un vero strazio.

Belgarath e Polgara tengono su tutta la baracca, insieme a Beldin (mitico!) e i due gemelli (che parlano come Qui, Quo, Qua). Sebbene viaggino separati per gran parte del romanzo e i loro battibecchi ci siano, ahimè, risparmiati, rimangono tra i personaggi migliori della serie (quelli che ti fanno desiderare di continuare a leggere nonostante tutto, per intenderci). Il colpo di coda finale di Belgarath a Polgara... mi ha fatto ribaltare dalle risate.

Tuttavia sul podio delle risate c'è solo Silk. Non so cosa avrei fatto senza di lui (*cough, cough* non avrei finito la serie). Irriverente e farabutto, non vedevo l'ora di leggere i suoi commenti. Peccato che per lui non finisca esattamente con “e vissero tutti felici e contenti”. Ma forse se la passeranno peggio tutti i mercanti che saranno costretti a fare affari con lui... ( )

En zo eindigt het verhaal van Belgarion. Gelukkig gaat het gewoon verder in de Mallorea serie, want ik ben er nog niet klaar mee. Heerlijk leesvoer! ( )

This will be the same review for all the books in ‘The Belgariad’ and ‘The Mallorean’.

These books changed me.
I started reading them as an 11 year old who was kind of floating around in this thing called life. I had friends at school, but no meaningful connections. This I didn’t understand until I was older. By reading these books I was drawn into an incredible world filled with characters that I knew and loved, and in some cases wanted to be (come on people, I can’t be the only kid that put a streak of white paint in their hair). The story is Garion’s ‘hero’s journey’ but I felt that the adventure belonged to me too. It was my ‘Neverending story’ if you will and it gave me the confidence to be more present in my own life. I own all the copies of both series set in this marvellous world and most of the extras too. They are a pretty tired looking collection of books because I bought them as a university student from second book shops all over Christchurch and Auckland. I love that they have been released again relatively recently with a fresh new look so that they can appeal to the younger generation. I thoroughly recommend these books for lovers of high fantasy, action, and relatable characters. It is the quintessential hero’s journey. ( )

Belgarath, Seda y Garion se dirigen hacia Mallorea, región donde se halla la Ciudad de las Tinieblas, así llamada porque el perverso dios Torak la destruyó y la cubrió con una perpetua nube negra. Entre las ruinas desmoronadas, sólo queda en pie la base de una torre de hierro, la cripta donde Zedar vela el sueño de Torak.
Durante el viaje, los compañeros han de superar un sinfín de dificultades, pero la más grave es su encuentro con los morinds, un pueblo de clanes nómadas que suele matar a los extranjeros que atraviesan sus tierras. Belgarath sostiene un duelo mágico contra un morind. En el combate, ambos crean «apariciones» de demonios, monstruos con tres o cuatro ojos, siete manos, cientos de dientes, cuerpos cubiertos de escamas... Si alguno de los dos contrincantes titubea durante la lucha, el demonio o el monstruo se libera y destruye al hombre que lo creó. Así sucede con el rival de Belgarath que muere a manos de la «aparición» a la que dio vida.
Cuando por fin llegan a Cthol Mishrak, la Ciudad de las Tinieblas, se produce el catastrófico enfrentamiento entre Garion y Torak, para que una vez más se cumpla la profecía.

- excerpts from The Book of Torak*

Hear me, ye Angaraks, for I am Torak, Lord of Lords and King of Kings.

*Editor's note: This version, said to be from the dread Book of Torak, is one of several circulated among the Nadraks. Since only the high Grolims were permitted official copies of the work, it is impossible to establish that this version is authentic, though internal evidence suggests that much of it may be. A true copy of the complete Book of Torak is believed to be in the library of King Anheg of Cherek, but this was not available for comparison.
There was, Garion decided, something definitely mournful about the sound of mule bells.
