In the beginning I was looking forward to a retelling of a familiar story from a new perspective. But that did not last long. I think the book could stand well on its own, but when you read all the Belgarath books, you start feeling like the same things are happening over and over again, in a bad way. I mean, even the parenthetical escapes, which I enjoyed before, get old real fast.
I like the way they write as a team. But it is starting to get a bit fluffy. I have another of their books from a different series, so it will be interesting to see how much carries over.
