review 1: It's Terry Brooks. Not much more to say on it. There was a time when his books were new and exciting, but they don't really seem to have evolved much beyond the very first forays into the world of Shannara. I had hoped for a darker edge in this latest trilogy, and in the first bo...

review 1: The Gypsy Morph by Terry Brooks is the third book of the Genesis of Shannara series set in the Shannara universe. This book completes the journey and the stories that began in the earlier books in this series. The main theme deals with of course the Gypsy Morph discovering why w...

review 1: This was good, but not great. I'm disappointed that Brooks far too often makes really great characters only to kill them off. I'm also disappointed that he is far too casual about destroying really great stuff, especially one-of-a-kind, never to be seen again artifacts. For someo...

review 1: As with the previous novella in the Paladin's Of Shannara series, Allanon's Quest this is a tiny novella of less than 40 pages but it's full of lush imagery and re-introduces us to one of the more intriguing characters (in my opinion) from the world of Shannara and that is weapon...

review 1: Mixed feelings. A bit less of the been there, done that plot repeating that book two had, but suddenly Shannara is full of teenagery angst - not loving it! There were a few things that didnt gel right. Keeton & Wint are built up, then abandoned. Presumably demon-fodder, but still...

review 1: Another excellent book by Terry Brooks. A great read!
review 2: great fantasy book. the best of the trilogy i think except the ending left me somewhat confused.

review 1: The last book in the trilogy and it was brilliant. Hawk, the Ghosts, Knights, Elves and other assorted survivors, struggle across country to the place where they will be safe from the coming apocalypse, but with assorted demons on their tail, real and imagined, it won't be the ea...

review 1: Another fine entry in Terry Brooks' saga of Shanara. This book continues Brooks' attempt to fill in the gap between his Running with Demons series, Genesis of Shanara series, and the Shanara series proper. This story takes place 500 years after the Genesis series, and follows the...

review 1: As great a book as I remembered from last time. Fun characters, interesting plot, fantastic world-building... Took me a while to get into again, though (this was my second time through the book), and it definitely doesn't have a climax--it and it's sister volume, The Measure of t...

English
4.03 of 5 Votes: 4
review 1: This was a fairly fun story. It was pretty short, and as a result often felt like it was a little lacking in detail - a lot of stuff that Brooks would usually spend a bit more time on gets skipped over quickly. The plot was enjoyable, though it somehow felt simultaneously too big...

review 1: Pan is now the last bearer of the last black staff and the magic it holds. His life is in great danger from a demon who wants the staff and will kill anyone to get it. As Pan moves about with the staff he helps a princess who has been accused of murdering her own father. That ...

review 1: The book picks up the theme of Book # 1 nicely. It is fast paced, with action and adventure and even some character development. For any that followed my review of the first book of this series my only qualm is the inherent development of technology in this particular series th...

review 1: A little too formulaic for me. While I loved going back to the Four Lands, I didn't like the Deus ex Machina resolutions--some antagonists' fate were sealed by another antagonist. And an old faerie saved one of the characters. I sure hope that Terry Brooks push the limits of his ...

review 1: I guess I am tiring of these books. I did not enjoy this at all. The heroes die (badly) right, left, center, up, down, sideways, etc. etc. But even more than that, the heroes of this book are not very bright. Calling them dumb is being kind. Terry Brooks keeps setting up fore...

review 1: This novel is the beginning of a new trilogy in his Shannara realm. New readers can start here but it is not the ideal starting point. In this book over a century has passed from his last novel. The Druids and the Federation are at odds. The Druids have uncovered evidence of how ...
