This is the first prequel to the Belgariad and Malloreon (before Polgara the Sorceress). In this prequel, Belgarath tells us about his youth and how he became Aldur's pupil and then disciple, along with his brothers Zedar, the twins Belkira and Beltira, Belmakor, Belsambar and the dwarf Beldin.

Top class fantasy.
