A magnificent epic set against a history of seven thousand years of the struggles of Gods and Kings and men—of strange lands and events—of fate and a prophecy that must be fulfilled!

THE BELGARIAD

Long ago, so the Storyteller claimed, the evil God Torak sought dominion and drove men and Gods to war. But Belgarath the Sorcerer led men to reclaim the Orb that protected men of the West. So long as it lay at Riva, the prophecy went, men would be safe.

But that was only a story, and Garion did not believe in magic dooms, even though the dark man without a shadow had haunted him for years.

Brought up on a quiet farm by his Aunt Pol, how could he know that the Apostate planned to wake dread Torak, or that he would be led on a quest of unparalleled magic and danger by those he loved—but did not know?

For a while his dreams of innocence were safe, untroubled by knowledge of his strange heritage. For a little while . . .

I believe David and Leigh Eddings were incredible story tellers. I first read 'Pawn Of Prophecy,' in the early 80s. Listening to it again, over forty years later is like catching up with a good friend I haven't seen in a long while. Wiggins did a good job bringing the characters to life. The story follows Garian life as he learns who he truly is. I still find it frustrating that he is kept ignorant of his heritage, but that makes the story. Sadly, David and Leigh are past, but they left behind a wealth of stories.

I'm super happy to get to listen to this story during work after so many year of not being able to reread due to wear and tear on some of the original publications

So happy to listen

Amazing! Been needing The Belgariad and Mallorean updated audiobooks, and as a long time fan this was incredibly well done… will get them all, can’t wait to continue listening to the entire series.

Incredibly Well Done

I’ve loved this series of books since I first read them when they came out in paperback. The narrator does not have a consistent audio level. He varies from a whisper to a strong level within the same sentence, for dramatic effect I assume. This has me constantly adjusting my volume control.

I don’t recommend this performer, but if you can find this title performed by someone else, get it.

The readers voices for the voices keeps me from want to hear more of the story, which sucks, because I love the series. I especially can’t stand when Durnik speaks. Why does it sound like he’s trying to use an Australian accent? Why can’t Nick Podell read for every fantasy series?

Good story, bad voice reading

I read this as a kid, but it's been 30 years or more. I remember it being a deceptively charming but world spanning epic coming-of-age fantasy novel. I would still call it a wholesome tale but the narrator just ruined it for me. My initial reaction was that it felt like I'd stumbled into a classroom of first graders and caught their reading hour. But I never got over it, and the narrator continued to disappoint. Terrible accents that slipped in and out of character. Mumbling some of them, to the point that I thought he might be imitating Billy Crystal's character Miracle Max from The Princess Bride for one of them. Maybe it was a joke, and I just didn't get it? In any case, I won't be buying the rest of them, and I'm sad about that.

Better off reading than listening, unfortunately.

I read these books as a kid and absolutely loved them. It’s a wonderful fantasy tale with great characters, story telling and an engaging world. Unfortunately I found the narrator of this version incredibly grating.
His voices are uninspired and annoying with flat strangely specific American accents that do no service to the fantasy world being described. On top of the awful accents, he narrates as if he’s reading a bedtime story to a very stupid child. I couldn’t get past it. There’s a better version on YouTube. Just do that.

The first title I have returned.

The story is a classic, but the narration feels like it was a rushed production. Some of the characters sound like obvious stereotypes or out of place in a fantasy world (i.e. Boston accent). Also, the pronunciations of some of the names are not what the author preferred. And to be honest, some of the voices mixed together so you didn't know who was speaking. They should've just rehired Cameron Bierle to do the narration.

Not as good as the original.

The narrator didn't change his voice enought to know which character was talking. Cameron Beierle did a much better job.

Can't tell the difference

The Belgariad WAS a great story when narrated by Cameron Bieles. This new narrator is terrible. Read the books instead of wasting credits on this

Narrator ruins the story
