I really enjoy reading these books, they have everything that make a good book: great well characterized characters, great story, good dark humor, great witty dialogues, packed with adventure and travels, great created world with each race, etc. Even though one may be scared of the 5 books to read they actually read too fast for my taste. I've heard some complaining that the books are too "light" but I like it this way. It's a serie I love rereading and being thrown back into with theseIn the third part of the series the story gets a darker turn as we find that the forces of evil have more power than we thought and that much more will be judged through this conflict. For this reason, our heroes are brought to the center of the hostile empire where they are more aware of what is happening, but at the same time understand that things are not as bad as many of those who are considered enemies are actually potential allies and all they have to do is play the game correctly.

So far, the best of this second series. I was thrown for a loop by Zakath and Garion's friendship, although it may have had some foreshadowing in the way he treated Pol, Errand, Durnik and Errand during the last series. Still it caught me by surprise, unlike the acquittal of Toth which was clearly on the horizon. I did however enjoy the way Durnik apologized, no words just fishing! Classic Durnik.I did find myself a bit annoyed with the way Zakath refused to let the party leave but I guess his
Originally published on Once Upon a Bookcase.David Eddings' Malloreon series gets even more exciting in the third book, Demon Lord of Karanda. This book involves a lot more intrigue and manoeuvring in order for Garion and his companions to get away from Zakath. Zakath and Garion have become friends, and although he's not exactly keeping them prisoner, he's adamant that no-one leave Mal Zeth - as he intends to accompany them - until his armies arrive from Cthol Murgos to deal with the troubles in
Another great addition to the series, not much new to report though that isn't necessarily a bad thing! I will say this: it is incredible how Eddings can surprise you with his characters. You finally meet characters they've been talking about since The Belgariad and they turn out to be nothing like you imagined them. A very enjoyable twist. You have this idea of a fairly standard villain in mind and the next thing you know your hypothesis is completely and unexpectedly blown out of the water. A

In this book, the third in the sequelling series to the Belgariad, events really take it up a notch. We have some new characters appear in the form of demons and a new added danger to our Heroes and their quest. We have added humour in the form of mischievous kittens and the distractions they offer in councils of war and other such occasions.Time to continue on with the adventure!
