In the 80's was part of a book club and ordered the Elfstones of Shannara hardbound. Was so drawn into the book I actually sent Mr. Books a letter and surprise-surprise, I received a postcard back from him. I still have it!

Amazon is already promoting the 3rd volume from the Fall of Shannara which should be released by June 4, 2019. I received a notification the book is available for pre-order this week. If this is really the end of Shannara legacy, I suppose the brothers will not survive this time.

The second book from the Fall of Shannara series is available now for pre-order with signed copies: http://terrybrooks.net/2018/02/pre-order-signed-copies-of-the-skaar-invasion/ Unfortuneltey, this will be much too expensive in Canadian dollars (almost $ 100). *sigh* Book should be published...

I watched the first episode from the 2nd season last night. The producers took some liberties and changed a bit the story. I'm not sure yet if this is a good or a bad thing. It was intersting to recognise San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge in an apocalyptique scene full of burned cars. Here...

I received The Black Elfstone yesterday and saw this one will be the first in a four-book set from The Fall of Shannara series. they say, the end of the book should be a surprise for the reader, so I hope to get the time and read it as soon as possible. Anyone else read it yet ? Book...

I have just counted how many novels of Terry Brooks I have/read so far and realised that exception The Magic Kingdom of Landover seria and Sometimes the Magic Works: Lessons from a Writing Life, I have/read all the others. I must admit as a reader, I'm not so picky and I loved all of them. I...

I really enjoyed reading all Shannara novels, but there is something that bothers me regarding the age of the druids. Bremen and Cogline lived for thousands of years, Allanon for several hundreds, but all the others not so much. Is this because their role is less important or have not enough...

Currently reading SoS and plan on doing Elfstones next. I hear the writing is much more improved in Elfstones as Sword is, well, not the greatest. Any truth to this?

Enough people have told me to read Brooks that I thought I would give it a chance. On his official site, it has a section for 'new readers' with the recommended places to start. Does everyone concur with that? That is the best order to read them in?

http://sf-fantasy.suvudu.com/2014/01/2014-letter-to-the-fans-by-terry-brooks.html Really loved the Shannara books from Sword through Voyage and Genesis. But the series has woefully stagnated, so glad to see Brooks end it gracefully and start something new.
