Product Description

Product Description
Three years have passed since Garion's killing of the evil God Torak and his marriage to Ce'Nedra. He is now Overlord of the West, slowly learning how to cope with the duties of a king. When the Orb warns him to beware Zandramas the Voice of Prophecy reveals that the Dark Prophecy still exists.

From the Back Cover
Warned by the prophecy that a new and greater danger threatens the lands of the west, Garion, Belgarath and Polgara must begin another quest to save the lands from great evil.

Three years have passed since Garion's killing of the evil god Torak and his marriage to Ce'Nedra. He is now Overlord of the West, slowly learning how to cope with the duties of a king and to overcome the difficulties within his marriage.

When the Orb of Aldur warns Garion to 'Beware Zandramas!' the Voice of Prophecy reveals that somewhere in the unknown land of the East the Dark Prophecy still exists and that great new dangers threaten.

While Belgarath and Garion seek to uncover the nature of this threat, Garion's baby son is kidnapped. All evidence points to the loathsome Bear-cult, which has gained power once more, and Garion leads an army bent on its destruction. But there are even more sinister forces at work, and Garion and his followers must look towards the malign and mysterious evil of Zandramas. Their quest must begin again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Family reunion, 12 Oct 2000
By A Customer
After I read "The Belgariad", I longed for more about Garion, Polgara, Silk and the rest of the gang and I must say my wishes were more than granted in "The Malloreon". Garion and Ce'Nedra turned out to be even nicer as adults than as adolescents and the plot is once again very gripping. You really know the characters now and reading "Guardians of the West" was like a family reunion. I loved all those nice character scenes in it and it was very exciting, as well. I read the other four books of "The Malloreon" in very short time and I was very sorry to have finished them. When you really want to finish a story yet feel sorry when you've finished it, you know it's good. And when it comes to that, Eddings is the best!

5.0 out of 5 stars Guardians of the west, 5 Feb 2004
By Joules (Shropshire, England) - See all my reviews
I first started reading David Eddings when I was on holiday in 1990. The book was Pawn of Prophesy. Since then I've read all of his books, including the Mrin Codex! Guardians of the West described for me the importance of sheer loyalty, integrity and love, even though Mandorallan or Silk would cut your heart out soon as look at you and still be polite about it. The battles were graphic enough for you to be totally pulled into the book and the way David and Leigh choreograph all the chapters leaves you reeling in your seat when the book ends. I've read these books four or five times now and they're a treat for me when I start reading them again. Guardians of the West is the book that stands out as the best of them all

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT!, 3 Jan 2002
By A Customer
After I read the Belgariad (one of my favorite series) I was really sad that there was no more, but then I discovered the Malloreon and I was so happy! I read this book and the other two after it and so far it has met all my expectations and has definetly lived up to the standard that the Belgariad had before it. I look forward to reading further on in this wonderful series!
