 Terry Brooks and the world of Shannara
Hello! I was just wondering if anyone else here as read any of Terry Brooks's work? And if you have, what do you think of it? He is my favorite Fantasy author. I love his Shannara series. The Magical Kingdom of Landover is good too, but Shannara is amazing!

 Re: Terry Brooks and the world of Shannara
Yeah, I've read all his stuff except for Hook and the Star Wars thing he was a part of. Not into that! I don't own his book The World of Shannara yet. I really want to get a good hard-cover one.

 Re: Terry Brooks and the world of Shannara
I know it's hard to choose, but what is your favorite Shannara book? Or mini-series like The Heritage of Shannara or the Voyage of the Jerle Shannara if it is too hard to pick just one! Personally, I really like the Voyage of the Jerle Shannara trilogy. And The Wishsong of Shannara.

 Re: Terry Brooks and the world of Shannara
I've read a lot of his work, the only one of his I wasn't to happy with was the magic kingdom for sale sold. I just prefer his straight up fantasy work rather than mixed material
