What this book is about

Young Garion has lived his whole life on a farm without knowing that his grandmother is one of the world's greatest sorcerers, or that he is at the center of a prophecy that will determine the fate of the world. David Eddings' classic epic fantasy debut launched the beloved Belgariad series with warmth, humor, and a cast of memorable companions.
