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.

I love it when a plan comes together!
In this, the 4th book of the Handful of Men series, Duncan pulls it all together, All of the wide spread, separate adventures all come back together.
Some of the story was predictable, some was a complete surprise. But all things considered, it was an EXCELLENT end to a fantastic series.

Incredibly disappointing end to the series
Great first 3.75 books and then the ending was astoundingly disappointing and really puts a pall on the entire series.
Spoilers: Three books of building up to this great climatic battle between the protagonist forces and the enemy and....the author has a god snap his fingers and it's all done. What a monumental let down. It truly ranks as one of the worst endings I've ever read. My mind just boggles that this was the end goal.
