    About this audiobook

    Time was running out for Garion and his companions in their quest to recover Garion's infant son and heir. If they could not locate the Place Which Is No More, then Zandramas, the Child of Dark, would use Garion's son in a rite that would raise the Dark Prophecy to eternal domination over the universe. Only the Seeress of Kell could reveal the site of that mysterious place, and she could only do that once Garion and Polgara had fulfilled an ancient prophecy in the mountain fastness of the Seers. Kell itself was closed to Zandramas, but her dark magic could force the knowledge she needed from one of Garion's party. She laid her traps and dispatched her foul minions, determined to claim the world for the Dark God. But Garion would let nothing stand between him and his son.

      "It has come at last," Garion's inner companion said unemotionally through the Child of Light's* lips. "It is the instant of the Choice. Choose, Cyradis, lest all be destroyed.""It has come," another equally unemotional voice spoke through the lips of the Child of Dark*. "It is the instant of the Choice. Choose, Cyradis, lest all be destroyed."The Seeress of Kell is the fifth and final book in The Malloreon by David Eddings. And quite an end it is! The quest draws to a close as the final riddles are solved so the meeting of Light and Dark can happen to decide the fate of the world. Zandramas strives until the bitter end to thwart her opponent. Garion must stay resolute to prevent the world from sliding into darkness even if it means he must kill his own son.It is a great ending to the series. All story threads are wrapped up, including a couple items from book one that had been left dangling. I've been with these characters for so long now that they feel like old friends and it is the character dynamics that has been the most enjoyable part of my reread. Sometimes it's hard for an author to keep track of all the characters when a series focuses on a fairly large group and I'd say Eddings is successful at giving everyone their own voice. The ending does have its bittersweet moment though. I'm quite glad to have made the journey again and am a little sad for it to be over.*Quote changed slightly to prevent spoilers.

      The quest is in its final stages, Garion and his companions have reached Kell and the full set of the Mallorean Gospels that would advise them as to where the final confrontation was to take place and other mysteries be unveiled.This one of the better books in the series, and not just because it's the last one in the series :-). By this point, the Eddings have been at this world for nearly a decade and they have a great deal invested in the characters so really does feel as if we are saying goodbye to members of the family
    • 4/5
      The Seeress of Kell concludes Eddings' epic fantasy, The Malloreon. In the fifth book, the heroes are drawn to 'The Place that is no More' and Cyradis finally makes her choice that will determine the fate of the world. The events that take place in the fifth book are quite predictable, but there was a sense of satisfaction in knowing that everything is as it should be. In this readers opinion, the Malloreon was probably about two books two long. The story wandered, there was a whole lot of walking and eventually I found myself screaming "Jesus Eddings will you let them get there already, haven't they suffered enough!!!" I think this series would have been far more enjoyable had I taken a break after reading the Belgariad. The first series was too fresh in my mind and that only served to highlight the plot similarities between the two stories. My recommendation is to read this series, but take your time and let the story stray from your mind a bit before jumping directly to the next.
    • 3/5
      I delayed reading this for a couple of months, since the earlier volumes in this series were getting a little dull and repetitive. While it will take more than such petty mind tricks to make this final volume in the Mallorean cycle an exciting read, I did find it to be a notch above the previous two books. This was not because of the climactic fulfilment of the great universe-saving quest the heores were embarked upon - in fact that was very dull and predictable. But the longish denouement where all the major characters we have come to know over the previous ten books return to their own homes and settle in domestic bliss was kind of heart-warming, even for a hardened cynic like me. Still, overall I would have to say that one can easy skip reading the Mallorean and feel confident that they will not suffer from any great gap in their acquaintance with the genre.

      See my review for Guardians of the West.
    • 4/5
      The conclusion of the Malloreon series. There are a few surprising moments in this last book, as the two paths of prophecy are finally resolved. The ending to this one feels a lot more final than the Belgariad, finally bringing the 10 book series to an end. I really enjoyed this series and this final book was definitely entertaining enough to carry through to the end. When it was over, I wished for more from Belgarion and his 'family', which I guess says a lot about this book and the previous novels.
    • 5/5
      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.
    • 2/5
      The ending, where we tie off all the knots, is a bit dull.
    • 5/5
      After following Garion and the others through The Belgariad and The Mallorean it is sad to finally see the end of their quest. However, I would say this is a fitting end to the journey. Worth reading.
    • 5/5
      A very good listen. I highly recommend David Eddings books.
    • 4/5
      fantastic, even though the names keep confusing and sounds familiar
    • 5/5
      Really a satisfying story. Well worth listening to. It’s a traditional good verses evil story with common archetypes, but DONT let that deter you from listening. In these days of moral relativism and iconoclasm, this story is quite refreshing. Quite funny at times and also addicting and fast paced.
    • 5/5
      Bravo. Simply bravo. The series kept me company for weeks. Both novel and narration was masterful.
    • 5/5
      as always david eddings delivers a stunning story every time
    • 5/5
      Great conclusion to a wonderful series. Loved every book in this series.
    • 5/5
      This is the 4th or 5th time I've read the 10 books of Belgarion but the first time I have also listened to the Audiobook versions. I am very pleased with the outcome and my only complaint is that the 10th book is now done. Expertly written, which I already knew but also, expertly voiced! I'll give it a few months and probably listen again!
    • 5/5
      How sad. My series is over (again). This book wraps up all the unfinished business from the series. The quest is over and everyone goes home. Eddings, of course, has fun with the characters and makes their happily ever after a little uncomfortable for them, but that's part of the fun of this series. My favorite wrap-up happened to Beldin. I was rooting for him (even though it was a re-read and I knew what would happen). I shall miss all of my friends"."
    • 3/5
      Solid ending to the series. Same good and bad as all the rest, if you are still here you know what you are getting.
