    Sorceress of Darshiva is the fourth book in The Malloreon by David Eddings. The never ending quest! Trouble and delays seem to plague Garion and the party in their efforts with Zandramas always staying one step ahead. With Demon Lords and enemy forces on one side and agents of Emperor Zakath trying to capture them on the other, the party will need to hurry if they want to make it to the Place Which Is No More in time. Assuming Belgarath can figure out what that phrase means.This volume is all about setting the stage for the final book. It's not boring and the pacing is decent, just a lot of activity and travel happens in a short time. The constant threat to the world also feels a bit lessened in this book due to the need to rush everyone from one task to the next so the bad guys, while there, aren't quite as menacing as they were in previous installments. This is the book where Durnik gets a chance to shine, which is nice as he's not really had his moment. His major scene is one of my favorites in this series. Also love the addition of the she wolf and her pup. It's too bad they weren't in the series more towards the beginning.If I were able to be more objective this might be more like a 3.5 star rating but no, I just love these books too much :) On to book 5!

    With the field of contenders down to just Garion and Zandramas, the competition becomes more focussed and Garion and his companions are hot on the trail of the sardion and one of their clues leads them to Senji, a scholar at the University of Melcene who'd learnt the secret of the Will and the Word, and the owner of the sole unmutilated copy of the Angarak Prophesies that will give them a clue as to what their opponent is supposed to do and where the final confrontation between Light and Dark is supposed to take place (a place that is not supposed to exist anymore!!).There's a good amount of action in this story and some of the interaction between the characters, and some of the supporting cast are fun as well.

    The fourth installment is more of the same. Garion and company continue on in their quest to fulfill and ancient prophecy. The foretold complete group of heroes has finally been established and finally, and I do mean finally, they will march on to the mystical 'place that is no more'.If you have made it to this book in the series you are either a) loving every footstep and hoof beat of Eddings' universe, b) you are a completest and must follow the heroes in spite of your better judgement or c) The story is just interesting enough to keep you engaged through the final book. Me, well I'm in the 'c' category with a small side of 'b'.

    Plot development has slowed to a crawl in this 4th instalment of the Mallorean and its only a combination of affection for the characters and sheer bloody-minded determination to finish this series that keeps the reader going. This 5 book series is definitely at least 2 books too long.

    The 5 book Malloreon saga continues. As we get to book 4, the ending starts to look more and more like some sort of paradox of prophecy, is it actually possible for either prophecy to actually 'win'? You'd think that would generate some suspense, but there isn't a whole lot of suspense in this series. They are well written and enjoyable, but mostly they are about the characters, not the plot. The characters are still good though, and do carry the story very well.

    Enjoyed the book although the narrator is terrible. Most of the female characters sound the same and his pronunciation of places in the book and some names are confusing.

    I'm still re-reading this series and I'm still loving it. There's a lot of action in this one as the group picks up a few more necessary characters on their quest. My favorite character in the series (Silk) is still there providing his wit to make me giggle. I can't believe I only have one more left and then it's over.

    This entire series is wonderful. One of the earlier "young boy discovers that he's more than he was led to believe" stories. A classic in the fantasy genre that pulls you into a great read.
