Queen of Sorcery by David Eddings, book two of the Belgariad

This book begins with Garion in the land of Arendia where he meets a new friend named Lelldorin. While visiting Lelldorin Uncle's house, Garion learns about a evil plot to pit two adjoining country's at war with each other. At this point, the party grows bigger with the addition of a Korodullin's (one of the countrys posed for war) knight named Mandorallen.

The party continues to the city of Vo Mimbre, where Garion tells about the plot to kill their king and make it look like the neighboring country was to blame. The party runs into the spy that is trying to pit these countrys aginst one another, and Hettar winds up killing him.

Next the party travels to Tolnedra, to talk with Emperor Ran Borune about the Murgos invading parts of his kingdom in an effort to stop them. Nevertheless he refuses to listen. At this point, Garion meets Princess Ce'Nedra the wood druid. On their way out of the country, they are stopped by a Duke who is demanding Princess Ce'Nedra to ensure Kador advancement to the throne.
It is at this time Ashrak slaps Garion Aunt Pol in the face, and Garion wills Ashrak to become incinerated. Shortly after this event, Garion sees slaves and is mad at how they are being treated and uses his powers once again to teleport one of the slaves into the water. However the water is filled with poisonous leeches, and the slave dies.

Garion is now poisoned and given to Queen Salmissra as a gift. The book concludes with Polgara and Barak rescuing Garion. I hope you enjoyed this, you can see book 1 review here https://steemit.com/fantasy/@amos811/book-review-pawn-of-prophecy-david-eddings
