Synopsis

Garion has grown up on a quiet farm knowing nothing of his past beyond his aunt Pol's cooking and a traveling storyteller's tales — until the theft of the Orb of Aldur draws him into a quest alongside the ancient sorcerer Belgarath and his daughter Polgara. This omnibus collects the first three novels of David Eddings' Belgariad — Pawn of Prophecy, Queen of Sorcery, and Magician's Gambit — as an orphaned farm boy discovers a prophecy, and a destiny, he never asked for.
