If you were captivated by Garion’s journey from humble beginnings toward a grand destiny, you’ll be drawn into Fitz’s story in Assassin's Apprentice. Like Garion, Fitz is thrust into a world of secrets and intrigue, with a hidden heritage and a purpose he doesn’t yet understand. The book’s clear progression from apprentice to active participant in the fate of the kingdom will keep you turning the pages.

If the interplay between Garion, Aunt Pol, Silk, and their companions made Pawn of Prophecy come alive for you, you’ll love the diverse group in The Eye of the World. Rand, Mat, Egwene, and their friends embark on a shared journey where each character’s strengths and flaws shape the adventure, offering a rich ensemble dynamic.

If watching Garion grow from a sheltered farm boy to someone capable of facing sorcerers and conspiracies resonated with you, Sabriel offers a similarly compelling arc. As Sabriel leaves her school for a perilous rescue mission, her transformation into a confident and capable necromancer is both believable and inspiring.

If you were fascinated by the intricate world of Aloria, with its legends, magical orders, and ancient politics, you’ll be swept away by The Name of the Wind. Rothfuss crafts a layered world where every location, myth, and institution feels alive, allowing you to sink deep into Kvothe’s journey through a land brimming with history and mystery.

If Garion’s coming-of-age and gradual self-discovery spoke to you, The Hobbit offers a similar blend of innocence and growth. Bilbo’s transformation from a home-loving hobbit to a brave adventurer echoes the sense of wonder and maturing responsibility that made Pawn of Prophecy unforgettable.
