The Diamond Throne

The Elenium, Book 1

De: David Eddings

Narrado por: Greg Abby

Sparhawk, the Pandion Knight and Queen's Champion, returns from a long spell of exile to find his native land overrun with evil and intrigue, and his young queen grievously ill. Indeed, Ehlana lies magically entombed within a block of crystal, doomed to die unless a cure can be found within a year.

But as Sparhawk and his allies - who include Sephrenia, the ageless sorceress, and Flute, the strange and powerful girl-child - seek to save Ehlana and the land, they discover that the evil is even greater and more pervasive than they had feared.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[A] graceful, fluid style of storytelling." ( Publishers Weekly)
"[Eddings] draws once more on his particular strengths, combining heroic yet humorous characters with exotic settings and tangled politics to create a fast-moving fantasy that will appeal to his large readership." ( Library Journal)

leaves you wanting to know how it will end

This book was one that I couldn't be distracted with. You will miss key points if you are not paying attention. The book is very good, the characters are almost real. Can't wait to finish the next book. Will the princess be ok?

narrator

everyone keeps saying that the narration is horrible... I don't hear a problem. they use old words sometimes so maybe that's everyone's problem

Wonderful

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

A world where loyalty and honor still drives a man.

Pretty good book

The story is good. I really like the main character in this book and the author has good dialogue. The story made sense but there was something missing I can't put my finger on that kept me from a 5 star rating. It is definitely worth reading but didn't make it into my top 10 or anything.

Good book, bad narrator.

Really can't stand the narrator. Love the book though, just can't struggle through the narrator.
