Six years had passed since the redoubtable knight Sparhawk had triumphed over the evil God Azash and returned to Elenia with Queen Ehlana, his bride. And now a new danger had arisen to threaten the peace of Ehlana's realm. The trouble had started quietly. At home, bandits began to plague the hill country. In neighboring Lamorkand, the customary political unrest turned ominous with whispers that the bloody heroes of old soon would rise again.

It would be sheer folly to try to conceal the true nature of Althalus, for his flaws are the stuff of legend. He is, as all men know, a thief, a liar, an occasional murderer, an outrageous braggart, and a man devoid of even the slightest hint of honor. Yet of all the men in the world, it is Althalus, unrepentant rogue and scoundrel, who will become the champion of humanity in its desperate struggle against the forces of an ancient god determined to return the universe to nothingness.

The Wasteland is a barren and hideous wilderness ruled by the Vlagh - a godlike creature whose young are evil spawn. Now, as the elder gods are about to transfer their power to the younger gods, the Vlagh plans to take advantage of their weakened state and neutralize them, eventually conquering the world. To do so, it is breeding a terrible force borne of monsters and demons. But one ray of hope shines through the darkness: four children called the Dreamers. They alone hold the power to change the course of history...and stop the Vlagh in its quest for total world domination.

What the critics say
"[Eddings] draws once more on his particular strengths, combining heroic yet humorous characters with exotic settings and tangled politics to create a fast-moving fantasy that will appeal to his large readership." ( Library Journal)

A great tale
I found David Eddings books when I was 14. I have read and reread them for the last 36 years. They are some of the best 'stories' you will ever read. Every time I finish a set I feel like I'm saying goodbye to old and close friends when I close the back cover or hit stop on the player. I constantly keep going back. They are all great reads!

Trope Filled in a Good Way!
The Diamond throne and the rest of the series always felt like it was designed to show that all the nuanced and innuendo the characters did in the Belgariad and the Mallorean to be shed off here, only really happening around one particular character but otherwise showing a semi-realistic dose of inter-politics and also a meshing of magic and knightly orders. The plot itself is fairly straight forward, with a character who is cynical at times but determined all the same, and has far too much experienced in dealing with all the bumps and interruptions the world can throw at him. The incentive to speed along the journey feels sometimes thrown in there as an arbitrary device to make some notion of emotional drain on the protagonists and perhaps it should have been extended and then limited which knights died; for the impact was much better struck home when we met each knight and were given a taste of the character before they passed on.
The antagonists start out very clumsy and a little obvious, but get better with time. You will question why one particular king seems to have all the authority a lot, fair warning. Greg Abby does a good job, though his pronunciation has me very confused on character names that seem straight forward and got made complex for no reason.

five stars*
It took me a bit to warm up to the narrator but the whole thing was an amazing ride and left me wanting more the main characters all stand out and the story is a must for fantasy story fans.
As I said to me a bit to warm up to the narrator but he did an absolutely fantastic job and deserves credit for his work here I will be looking for more work of his!

Great book....bad narrator.
Too bad the narrator can't pronounce words correctly... I'll listen to them because they are the only ones I can find of these books.

Decent reading of an excellent book.
While the narrator speaks far too slowly, the speed control works to make him tolerable. 1.2x is perfect. His pronunciation of almost every name is off, in my opinion (even at regular speed) but that seems fairly common. Overall, well worth the time.

Boring with lots of unnecessary sexism and violence
Made worse by one of the worst narrations I’ve ever heard in my life, this book is incredibly boring. Every single character seems to have the same vocal tics and speech patterns, the same ideals, etc, except for the styrics who stand in for Jewish people with magic and are treated with a lot of racism. There is constant unnecessary sexualization and demonization of female characters who all fall into the very generic stereotypes of whore or mother or virgin. Nothing happens in this book except for a lot of peacocking and violence. Do not recommend.
