Legends told of how the evil god Torak had coveted the power of the Orb of Aldur, until defeated in a final battle.  But prophecy spoke of a time when he would awake and again seek dominance over all the world.  Now the Orb had been stolen by a priest of Torak, and the time was at hand.

The master Sorcerer Belgarath and his daughter Polgara the arch-Sorceress were on the trail of the Orb, seeking to regain it before the final disaster.  And with them went Garion, a simple farm boy only month before, but now the focus of the struggle.  He had never believed in sorcery and wanted no part of it.  Yet with every league they traveled, the power grew in him, forcing him to acts of wizardry he could not accept.

This is by far my favorite book about Garion because this is when he figures out he can kick ass with sorcery

I've read these book 4-5 times allready, and i'm willing to read'em again. Can't believe he isn't more famous in Denmark, he's the new Tolkien.
