Tuck Underbank is a Warrow -- think a hobbit with shoes and "large jewel-like eyes" -- living in the peaceful Boskydells. When an unnaturally cold winter strikes and the evil Modru threatens the world, he and a number of his fellow Thornwalkers go to the High King's aid. But a vast expanse of lightless blizzard called the Dimmendark (sounds bad, doesn't it?) is spreading over the land, and Tuck soon finds that the "dark tide" is going to swamp them all.

On the outcome of that dread duel rested the destiny of the world.

Now, at last, the Orb has been regained and the quest nears its end. Of course, the questors must still escape from a crumbling enemy fortress, flee across a desert filled with Murgo soldiers, and avoid the Grolim Hierarchs seeking to destroy them with dark magic.

Ce'Nedra, Imperial Princess of Tolnedra, is confused. Everyone knows the tales of the Orb protecting the West from the evil god Torak are just silly legends. But here she is, forced to join a quest to recover that stolen Orb. No one believes in sorcery, but Garion's aunt and grandfather seem to be the fabled sorcerers Polgara and Belgarath. Even young Garion is learning to do sorcery. He's just a farm boy, totally unsuitable for an Imperial Princess. Yet for some reason, she has the urge to comfort him.

Long ago, so the Storyteller claimed, the evil god Torak sought dominion and drove men and Gods to war. But Belgrath the Sorcerer led men to reclaim the Orb that protected the West. So long as it lay at Riva, the prophecy went, men would be safe. That was only a story, and Garion did not believe in magic dooms, even though the man without a shadow had haunted him for years.

It would be sheer folly to try to conceal the true nature of Althalus, for his flaws are the stuff of legend. He is, as all men know, a thief, a liar, an occasional murderer, an outrageous braggart, and a man devoid of even the slightest hint of honor. Yet of all the men in the world, it is Althalus, unrepentant rogue and scoundrel, who will become the champion of humanity in its desperate struggle against the forces of an ancient god determined to return the universe to nothingness.

Pronunciations and Pacing
This is always the big issues, narrators that are incapable of pronouncing common fantasy terms like scimitar (pronounced by this guy as skimitar), winding not like winding a clock but like wind the movement of air... and the way he pronounces Ghul just kills me, not only the "ga-hool" but the tone he takes when he does it. Terrible.

Great Adventure!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Mr. McKiernan offers you a great adventure that leaves you imagining how you would perform if you were part of the heroic group. You may even imagine yourself as a new character with unique strengths and intelligence that helps the heroes to win their battles within and without. You never feel like you are a spectator. You feel like you should be an active member contributing to their objectives and their ultimate goal.
Fantasy is like a sport in which you wish that you were there. Enjoy the sport!
What other book might you compare The Darkest Day to and why?
