5.0 out of 5 stars The Elenium/Boxed Set, October 3, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Elenium/Boxed (Paperback)

I have been a reader of Fantasy Fiction for most of my life but David Eddings is the best. You have to marvel at the level of detail in these novels. The Belgariad was very entertaining as was the Mallorean (You had to love 'Zakath and Hettar) but Eddings grew up in the Elenium and the Tamuli. The characters were more mature and so was the storyline. I was particularly entertained by the church politics. Eddings draws you in to his stories and you literally can't put them down until you've read the last word of the last novel. We await the story of Danae and Talen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Eddings: The Master, June 27, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: The Elenium/Boxed (Paperback)

I first read The Diamond Throne, and I got to the conclusion that David Eddings is the true master of fantasy writing, forget Salvatore or Brooks, Eddings is nearly God.
The Elenium is one of my favorite series (that and The Tamuli), I have read the three books a total of 30 times between them all, and I still read them again and again. Why? Because it's a whole new experience each time you read an Eddings book, no matter how many times you've read it before.
If any of you enjoy reading fantasy, this set is a MUST, although I would consider getting the hardcover editions, since they are small treasures.

Enjoy, have fun, and read
