Summary: ACK ACK ACK
Review: Oh my freaking goodness, I wanted to punch that jerk of a sorceress in the face. She is soooooo stinking mean to Belgarath that it makes me want to hurt her. Now I do own this book and it isn't all that bad it still only gets one star cause she is such a jerk

Summary: Good book to read, but not as good as the earlier books.
Review: Polgara the sorceress is a good book to read but gets a bit long winded in the middle, during her time in Vo Wacune. I enjoyed reading about her early life and the battle at Vo Mimbre. I recommend this book only if you have read the Belgariad and the Mallorean and if you want to know about what happened before them.

Summary: David Edding's rulez!
Review: I think all those ppl who said that Polgara is a lousy book are either mad, insane or both.....This book is practically one of the best books I've ever read. If you combine it with Belgarath the Sorc. it'll give you the most loving detail and interesting aspects of the entire epic seris that D and L created. Belgarath is more factual...(and a lot more windy) and gives real insight on how Belgarath really is...(boring and windy at times...:p) However, Polgara is much more sensitive and HER story is written for the human side of the epic created.Polgara is about a story that's filled with warmth and the reasons why Polgara does things the way SHE wants it....(cos if Belgarath had his way....God knows what would have happened) Definitely one of the books that you'll just want to read over and over and over and over again.

Summary: kinda dull
Review: Well, when I first started reading Eddings, I thought his books were amazing. Fortunately, I had started out with the Belgariad. Although his other works are imaginative, the humor gets a little stale...it's all the same thing! After the Belgariad, Eddings should have made up some new jokes. After his other books, Polgara was a bore.

Summary: I feel cheated.
Review: I have been a fan of David Eddings for years now and have always enjoyed with great anticipation a new installment of this story. However, with this book I was completely cheated. The only review that is adequate is "I spent time and money on this?!"

Summary: For women good; men nope
Review: The book was overall pretty good. It focused too much on how great women are though. (Have you ever noticed that males in books don't have to say how great they are they just do actions, while the author always has to remind poeple how great a female character is because she did something that could have been done by a man and when it couldn't wants special credit?). After the feminism it gets better though. Obviously written more by Leigh than David, it is still well written. It has some great insights into human nature, just goes to extremes to say how good women are. Luckily not as far as the women characters in Wheel of Time series by Jordan.

Summary: This book was well developed & filled in a lot of gaps.
Review: Although the book had few new surprises it did answer alot of the previous "skimmed over" histories. The Eddings' illustrated quite well the hardships & sacrifices made by this extraordinary woman to protect and ward Riva's and Beldaran's line. The quick dry wit that we all have come to admire in this gifted family still runs true in this book and makes us laugh along with the characters being made sport of. The only major dissapointment to the book is that it didn't go into detail on Pol's relationship with her "uncles" as well as not explaining why she avoided taking her mother's true form. (only one instance in the Mallorean). All in all the book is very entertaining and is a must read for everyone who has read the previous books.

Summary: Boring!!!!!!!!
Review: When I first started reading Eddings, I thought his books were some of the greatest written and I still enjoy his earlier works. (The Belgariad) I have gotten tired though of hearing in his latest works how perfect and wonderful the good guys are. His evil characters are all bumbling fools. They never seem to give any challenge to the good guys. His works has just gotten boring. He needs to come up with new stuff. And to write evil characters that could actually succeed in winning. Polgara just hit the same old stuff in a very boring, humorless sort of way. Her jokes are not funny. And she came of as a whiny harridan. When I started praying that the bad guys would get rid of that annoying Killane I knew the book was just bad. I forced myself to finish it, but I will think long and hard before buying anything by the Eddings again.

Summary: The only fantasy writer to make me laugh out loud
Review: Very few writers have the capacity to make me constantly chuckle to myself while reading, and sometimes even to laugh out loud. Terry Pratchett is one of them, David Eddings (and his wife) is another. With Polgara the Sorceress, Eddings keeps the subtle jokes and the witty dialouge as fresh ever, even moreso now that Polgara is speaking with her own voice: "I am of an independet nature, and nobody is ever going to tell me what to do. Have you noticed that, father? I thought I noticed you noticing." -PtS p.30 Passages like the one aboive just crack me up, and makes me laugh out loud, and then I walk around with a secret smile on my face for the rest of the day. This is a personal opinion, of course. I know many people hate this particular aspect of Edding's writing style, but I just can't seem to get enough of it! If you don't like it, then why are you reading Eddings? Go brood over the latest Robert Jordan epic, or go sulk in a Tree like Polgora :) Keep 'em coming, David and Leigh!
