The Belgariad and The Malloreon - David Eddings | Книги

The Belgariad is classic 80's fantasy. It's a sword & sorcery quest with a group made up of characters from a variety of races. Eddings put a group together that's a mixed bag containing royalty, serfs, wizards, knights, warriors, thiefs, and so on. The series revolves around a prophecy concerning the end of the world. Thousands of years prior to the book's events some of the gods fought and created a rift in the fabric of the world. Now, the time is coming to a point where the fabric will either rend entirely or be put back together. The prophecy provided a recipe for the types of people needed to fulfill it and the steps they have to take.
