Sorceress of Darshiva

The Malloreon, Book 4

By: David Eddings

Narrated by: Cameron Beierle

Troubles and delays continue to mount as King Garion, Belgarath, Polgara, and the company pursue Zandramas across the known world. Possessed by the Dark Destiny, Zandramas has kidnapped Garion's infant son and plans to use him in a ritual that would destroy all that men value. Always one step ahead, taunting and spying on Garion and his party in the form of a great flying dragon, Zandramas races to beat them to the "Place Which Is No More".

Desperate to arrive at the ancient ritual site at the same time, or face disaster, Garion and his friends must defend themselves against Zandramas' armies, led by the Demon Lord on one side of them, and the forces of Emperor Zakath on the other side. To make matters worse, they have no idea where to find the "Place Which Is No More".

Critic reviews

"Eddings depicts a complex, believable and colorful society filled with nobles, rogues and common people." ( Publishers Weekly)

great books

i just loved this set and also the first set. david eddings nows how to entertane. thank you

great story narrated extremely well!

such an amazing series of books. like the first series, tells yet another amazing story. some new discoveries and many explanations of things that weren't completely explained in the first series. the characters are really brought to life by the narrator who gives each character their own voice and it is just a complete delight to listen to.

Awesome Series!!

I loved it as a preteen, I still love it today! Great book series, I am looking forward to what I remember being an awesome conclusion

One step closer.

I think it's safe to say that Cameron Beirle has found his footing. His characterizations show almost no choppiness here and his overall narration is very crisp and clear.
Having escaped the clutches of Emperor Zakath of Mallorea and later eliminated the strange magician Menga, revealed to in fact be the same man responsible for the attempt on Ce'Nedra's life during her pregnancy, Belgarion and company continue their pursuit of Zandramas. The trail leads into the territory of the aristocratic but courteous Melcene people. Despite all the setbacks thus far, Belgarion learns much to his surprise that he is less than a week behind Zandramas and that she, like him, must still uncover the final piece of the puzzle, that being the location of the final meeting, the mysterious and oft referred to "Place which is No More." Eventually Garion learns that this crucial information can only be found in the Book of the Seers, which is kept under close watch in the mysterious city of Kell. But reaching the holy city of the Dals will not be an easy proposition. The companions know all too well that not only are the minions of Zandramas out to hinder them, but also those of the mad sorcerer Irvon, the last living disciple of Torak. And of course Zakath himself doubtless has agents out to recapture them. A well-written tale told by a fine narrator. I couldn't put it down for long.

Excellent story and performance

Cameron Beierle is the best narrator on audible! David Eddings does it again. 10/10

Book 4

love it , this book took me on an emotional rollercoaster. the reader really nailed it!

Best one so far!

Narrator is fantastic and does a lot of voices. The kings os Mallorea and The Murgos are AWESOME.

love it

can't wait for book 5. gotta go download it and will probably finish before I get another audible credit.

so much awesome

If you have listened this far into the series, then you know that you are in the presence of greatness. From the writing to the production to the wonderful talent of Cameron Beierle... This is a collaboration of epic proportions.

Heartbreaking

This series gets more and more heartbreaking. Garon is to be sacrificed and turned into a horrible God. Its completely horrible. All the times Belgarion and Ce'Nedra are lured with images of their son. And it's getting closer and closer.

I do wonder though if Belgarion will ever be a disciple of Aldur. If he and Ce'Nedra will live for thousands of years.
