This is a great novel, chronicling the 7,000 year life of the sorcerer Belgarath. This book is relatively slowpaced, but it is great for a dedicated fantasy nerd. This author has created an interesting magic system which is definitely worth reading about. Lastly, I would recommend reading the Belgariad series by David Eddings before you read this, it will help you understand some of the references made in this book.
