I adore this series. It is the story of a boy named Garion who grows up to learn about his great heritage. I think these books are very accessible and very entertaining. They are very character-based, with a lot of sarcastic humor thrown around. I read these books at least once a year.”

I've read the series multiple times and just started it again last month. The witty dialogue makes me laugh out loud at times. Some of the characters (like Silk) are so sarcastic that I wish they were real and lived in my house!”

Yes | No“The story is slow to start and leaves you rather wanting, but considering there are four more books in the series, I'm not really surprised. It's enough to make me want to read the next book, though so far I'm not as in love with this series as I was with The Elenium.”
