Polgara is the epic culmination of a magnificent saga, and a fitting farewell to a world which, once experienced, will never be forgotten.

She soars above a world of warriors, kings, and priests. The daughter of Belgarath and the shape-shifter Poledra, she has fought wars, plotted palace coups, and worked her powerful magic for three thousand years. Now, Polgara looks back at her magnificent life, in this fitting crown jewel to the saga that is the Eddings' Belgariad and Mallorean cycles.

Her hair streaked white by her father's first touch, her mind guided by a mother she will not see again for centuries, Polgara begins life in her Uncle Beldin's tower, and in the prehistorical, magical Tree that stands in the middle of the Vale. There, she first learns the reaches of her powers. There she assumes the bird shapes that will serve her on her adventures. And there she starts on the path toward her destiny as Duchess of Erat, shepherdess of the cause of good, adversary of Torak the One-Eyed Dragon God, and guardian of the world's last, best hope: the heir to the Rivan throne.

Here is the legendary life story of a woman of wit, passion, and complex emotions, a woman born of two majestic parents who could not have been more unlike one another. Ordained to make peace and make war, to gain love and lose love, Polgara lives out her family's rich prophecy in the ceaseless struggle between the Light and the Dark.

    After reading the entire rest of the series, this book fills in the rest of the missing details that help to round out the Belgariad and make the story complete. It felt almost sneaky learning about everything that had been happening behind the scenes for so very many years. If you've read the rest of the series, do yourself a favour and finish it with this book.

    I love this book, it ties up loose ends from the other series. It completes them nicely, especially if you hate to see a good series end

    5.0 out of 5 stars ich liebe dieses Buch
    Reviewed in Germany on March 27, 2015

    Ich habe das Buch vor Jahren als Taschenbuch gekauft als ich im Urlaub war. Und seitdem liebe ich es. Es war mein erster Eddings und inzwischen ist das Taschenbuch vom wiederholten lesen so mitgenommen, dass ich mir hier die gebundene Ausgabe bestellt habe.

    Polgara erzählt in dem Buch aus ihrem Leben. Dabei spricht sie gelegentlich mit dem Leser oder macht Randbemerkungen, die mich schmunzeln lassen. Z.B.: "take notes, there will be tests later on - and I won't be the one who's issuing them" wenn sie von Kinderzerziehung spricht. Mir gefällt die Erzählweise sowie auch die Art und Sprache. Die Umgebung wird z.B. mit Liebe zum Detail beschrieben ohne wie bei Tolkien (den ich auch gerne lese) zu breit ausgewalzt zu werden. Wunderbar sind auch die Passagen mit den "those" and "thees". Außerdem entdecke ich immer wieder neue Details, die ich beim ersten Lesen überlesen habe. So macht das Buch auch bei mehrmaligem Lesen immer wieder Spaß.

    Doch Vorsicht: wer es nicht ertragen kann, die Welt aus den Augen einer selbstbewußten Frau kommentiert zu sehen, sollte die Finger von dem Buch lassen (Stichwort "Feministin", was in einigen Rezessionen wie ein Schimpfwort verwendet wird).

    Für alle anderen eine wunderbare Lektüre, die ich nur empfehlen kann.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Immortality has a personal cost
    Reviewed in Australia on May 18, 2015

    I really enjoyed this book that tells about the story of Polgara leading up to the Begariad. I'm not sure it can be read before the Belgariad and the Mallorean though. The reader needs to understand Polgaras' role during these adventures to want to know her life and role leading up to them. She is an amazing lady who dedicates her life to the Rivan King and the prophecy. But being immortal brings with it a personal cost and I couldn't help feel her grief and self blame. At the same time it was good to share the good times.
