I hope someone can shed some light!

I'm hoping someone can help me remember the author, title or even a character's name...

I read the first couple of books in the series about 10 years ago. All I remember is one character, a wizard, who had a magic bag that seemed to be full of oranges and he kept giving the oranges away to other characters.

That sounds like the wizard Zifnab in Weis & Hickman's Death Gate Cycle.

Or maybe it was Fizban in their Dragonlance Chronicles.

Just did some Googling, it sounds like you might be talking about Nakor from Raymond Feist's Prince of the Blood and his later Riftwar books.

 

[Hobbit]

Yeah, I'd go for Ray Feist's Nakor myself.

That's it!

YES! That's it!

Thanks so much! That's been driving me nuts for around five years now.
