But the evil god Torak is awakening and will stop at nothing to recapture the Orb. Belgarath knows from the prophesies that the future of the world hinges on a final battle between Garion and Torak.

With the future of the world in danger, Princess CeβNedra finds the strength to raise an army, intent on helping Garion combat Torak and his forces. The fourth book in the 5-part bestselling Belgariad series.
"Eddings' BELGARIAD is exactly the kind of fantasy I like. It has magic, adventure, humor, mystery, and a certain delightful human insight."
"Absorbing. Touches all the right Fantasy bases. Warring gods, political intrigues, supernatural creatures, and appealingly human magicians."
"A graceful, fluid style of storytelling rare in fantasy writing.β
