Publisher's Summary

Troubles and delays continue to mount as King Garion, Belgarath, Polgara, and the company pursue Zandramas across the known world. Possessed by the Dark Destiny, Zandramas has kidnapped Garion's infant son and plans to use him in a ritual that would destroy all that men value. Always one step ahead, taunting and spying on Garion and his party in the form of a great flying dragon, Zandramas races to beat them to the "Place Which Is No More".

Desperate to arrive at the ancient ritual site at the same time, or face disaster, Garion and his friends must defend themselves against Zandramas' armies, led by the Demon Lord on one side of them, and the forces of Emperor Zakath on the other side. To make matters worse, they have no idea where to find the "Place Which Is No More".

So good!

I have read this series so many times when I was younger but to have Cameron read it to me is another level... my imagination goes wild playing the scenes in my mind.

Poor narration is frustrating

A great story but the narration gets sloppier than before! mispronounced words (Viscount and Divan for example), inconsistent accents and poor timing or speed make listening uncomfortable.

My childhood favourite

All in all, this is a beautiful book and the narration is *generally* ok. Certain words, it seems that Cameron doesn't know what the word means so he guesses the pronunciation - take 'quay' for example. Every time he came out with 'kwaaay' it made my teeth ache.

Eddings, however, is a true powerhouse and this 4th instalment of the Mallorean continues a journey 9 books in the making. Fantastic audiobook or paper / e-book. Highly recommend.

This reader is a disaster.

I love books; I love to read; getting old means it’s difficult to hold heavy books; so, I love to listen to someone else reading my favourite books ; but, this reader is an absolute disaster. I will not be keeping these David Eddings stories for Re-Reading because this reader, Cameron Beierle , is not just terr, he is dreadful. Too many faults to enumerate.
