I would rate this a 5. It is an excellent series of 3. I rate a 5 for a book if I find myself wondering how a character(s) in a book is doing after I've completed it. Then I have to remind myself that it is not a real person or people. When characters come to life like that a book is a 5 to me.

I loved this trilogy. In fact, I loved it so much that I've requested every other book written by David Eddings! There are wars, quests, church and government politics, and magic. There is racial discrimination, and class discrimination. There are mysteries and loyalties and backstabbing. It is very well-written with an easily followable plot.

not nearly as good as the Belgariad. Decent, but the bar my expectations had put was too high for this to become a favorite.
