Polgara's twins

Hi, I am new to the board, but I have been reading Eddings since the early '80's, I have a couple of questions I hope some one can answer. What are Polgara's children, boys or girls or both? And what image is on Garion's amulet? I have read these books backwards and forwards and I can't find the answer! Can some one help?

We never got to know about the twins, I would have love to have known.

As for the amulet, I can't remember...will go and look when I get home from work

Re: Polgara's twins

Garion's amulet ... Eddings only made one comment on what was on the amulet. In Queen of Sorcery, Garion looks at his amulet and notices that it has a strange geometric design. That's it. For some reason, Garion never bothers to look at his amulet ever again. I'm pretty curious about what the emblem is too.

What is the sex of Polgara's twins? It is never said. In the prologue and epilogue of Polgare The Sorceress, the twins are mentioned many times, and are quite clearly not referred to by name or sex. Eddings said in an interview that this was quite deliberate as no one can now come up with any suggestion for stories about the twins, because absolutely nothing is known about them.

Re: Polgara's twins

Well, that makes sense! At least now I know a reason for the omission.
