After being exiled for many years, Sparhawk made his way home to his queen. But things are not well in the kingdom of Elenia and it's queen Ehlena is encased in glass to save her life. What happened to the young queen and who's head does Sparhawk need to bash?
I am the biggest fan of David Eddings and his Belgariad series. It was only a matter of time before I dusted this series off the shelf and read it. And I'm not sorry I did. I was always afraid like most really good authors it would be a rinse and repeat storyline and characters would be too similar. Eddings not only managed to create a whole totally different world but another set of amazing characters that aren't like my beloved Belgariad.
I love Sparhawk. For lack of a better reference he is a paladin. He is a no nonsense knight that kicks, ass, takes names and his horse is worse. I may be more in love with his horse Faran. Anyways Sparhawk already has a reputation (I would pay good money to read about Sparhawk as a youth!) but when he returns to the kingdom and then sets out to save his queen the characters he takes with him are just as rich and mysterious and spirited as he is.
Read it!!
