The Belgariad

Loving father and legendary author, this book utterly encaged me in its world!

I super enjoy this series and always have. Something resembling an actual review is here: http://www.rebecca-allen.net/?p=519.

A nice mix between The Lord of the Rings and a Song of Ice and Fire. Classic good vs. evil, with a decent amount of politics, religion and sarcasm.
