I like to ask this question every few months.
Currently reading Life of Pi by Yang Martel. Saw the movie a few months ago and wanted to read the book. The one I just finished was called Black Ice by Michael Connelly. It’s one of the Bosch books.

I read everything Eddings did in the 80's and 90's but only recently read the redemption of Althalus - which whilst I loved the setup of the magic mechanics for the war I still thought was a bit juvenile in places - but I think that's because it was co-written by Leigh Eddings
To be frank I think it was entirely Leigh. I think he was trying to boost her career by lending his name to it, Clancy style.
Yeah it definitely had a different feel to it than the Belgariad
Even bigger gap between that and the Elenium. Which remains a favorite of mine until this day, unlike a lot of sci-fi I read when I was younger.
Terry Brooks for example. I might one day pick up one of his older books again, but it took me two decades to realize that he secretly sucks.
I agree with you about his wife, once she became his official co-writer everything got noticably worse.
