Eddings... lots to say. excellent books.

I've read his Belgariad and Mallorean series (I place them next to Redwall, Tolkein, and Rowling), but haven't gotten my hands on the other books. anyone read them?

and I would LOVE a big discussion on his books.

The Diamond Throne was most interesting, and I'm halfway through the Ruby Knight. The characters seem very different from his other world, and its an interesting change. The plot in Belgariad and Mallorean seemed more complex, but the Elenium feels more purposeful, and the characters more realistic. The B and M could be a little extreme in characterizations. (Like the females, as mentioned before.)
