Bestselling authors David and Leigh Eddings welcome readers back to the time before The Belgariad and The Malloreon series.

When the world was young and Gods still walked among their mortal children, a headstrong orphan boy set out to explore the world. Thus began the extraordinary adventures that would mold that youthful vagabond into a man, and the man into the finely honed instrument of Prophecy known to all the world as Belgarath the Sorcerer. Then came the dark day when the Dark God Torak split the world asunder, and the God Aldur and his disciples began their monumental labor to set Destiny aright. Foremost among their number was Belgarath. His ceaseless devotion was foredoomed to cost him that which he held most dear--even as his loyal service would extend through echoing centuries of loss, of struggle, and of ultimate triumph.… (plus d'informations)
I know that David Eddings books are very much a repeated formula from series to series but that does not take away from my enjoyment of them.

I enjoy his characters and the plot and I find that in general they stand up to the test of time as long as you can enjoy the raging sexism. ( )
OK, let's be clear about this, BtS is a fairly blatant attempt to milk the Belgariad Universe for as much as the market can take. It does also give David to share the limelight with his wife, Leigh. And to be fair, there isn't anything bad about the story itself though if you have followed the earlier books, the barebones outlines will be familiar to you, this book will more than flesh them out.
