If you think that was staggering. Look up the battle of the somme. |

Man, David Eddings... I read The Elenium first, and then I read the Tamuli. I never read the Belgariad since, as above, I'd heard that it's the exact same plot.
Still, his books were great for totally indulgent brain-turn-off-ery. |

What you call luck is the LORD's divine intervention. He alone understands the details of everything and how even the smalest "change" can bring world wide impact. Yeah, so where was he when Hitler put together a panel to come up with a "final solution"? Where was he when Stalin decided that "friends" were just "enemies" in disguise? Where was he when a few guys decided that crashing planes into buildings was a great way to go to heaven....
Where you see DIVINE MEANING, I see trial and error. I call your bluff. Now go troll on some other board. |

I thoroughly enjoyed reading The Belgariad when I was a kid. It was my introduction to the rather indulgent world of the Fantasy Trilogy, and I ate it up. I admit that I also enjoyed the sequel trilogy The Malloreon, but it didn't escape my notice that it was, in fact, the same story as its predecessor. When I picked up the first book of his next series, and found myself reading that same story for a third time, I gave up in disgust and never looked at an Eddings novel again.
I liked his writing. I just wish he could have thought up a second plot line (soon enough for me to care, at least).
