Fanfiction. Written down because some characters jump into reader's head and demand that more of them be told. Put into net so others may share the fun…
If you read David Eddings fanfic, you must of read at least some books he wrote.
For me, it's mainly Belgariad&Mallorean series, added with two. Or, should I say, Garion-books.
Sometimes it's the character barely mentioned in the original books that demands to be heard…
This story is about secondary character… I suggest you read all Garion-books before this if you haven't already, and at least the Belgariad.
