Items related to Castle of Wizardry: 4 (Belgariad (Rhcp))
A magnificent epic set against a history of seven thousand years of the struggles of Gods and Kings and men - of strange lands and events - of fate and a prophecy that must be fulfilled!
THE BELGARIAD
It had all begun with the theft of the Orb that had so long protected the West from the evil God Torak. Before that, Garion had been a simple farm boy. Afterward, he discovered that his aunt was really the Sorceress Polgara and his grandfather was Belgarath, the Eternal Man. Then, on the long quest to recover the Orb, Garion found to his dismay that he, too, was a sorcerer.
Now, at last, the Orb was regained and the quest was nearing its end. Of course, the questors still had to escape from this crumbling enemy fortress and flee across a desert filled with Murgo soldiers searching for them, while Grolim Hierarchs strove to destroy them with dark magic. Then, somehow, they must manage to be in Riva with the Orb by Erastide.
After that, however, Garion was sure that his part in these great events would be finished.
But the Prophecy still held future surprises for Garion - and for the little Princess Ce'Nedra!

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 1st UK edition 1st impression of this key title. Notable imperfections: Unclipped dustjacket has a tiny nick to 1 corner and a tiny edge tear near the head of the spine that is invisible externally. The book has the typical age toning to the text block and has considerable spotting to the front of the compressed page edges and is dusty to the top edge. This spotting only intrudes into the page edges by 0.10 mm. There are a few marks to mostly the rear endpapers near the hinge, a faint shadowing on the back board (possible fingerprint/s). A quite pleasing copy of a scarce 1st edition that retains strong colours to the jacket. Jacket has been placed in a new protective sleeve after photos. Please ask questions if you would like to clarify condition. Seller Inventory # 041242
