NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Since the death of the Druid Allanon, the Four Lands have changed profoundly, with magic strictly forbidden in the Southland, now under totalitarian rule. Yet Par still has some power of the Wishsong. When he accidently brings a mythic horror to life, a man calling himself Cogline drives it away. Cogline brings a message from Allanon: venture to the dread Hadeshorn, along with the other Scions of Shannara. For in the future, all life in the Four Lands will be destroyed. To prevent this terrible fate, Allanon commands Par to recover the long-lost Sword of Shannara, a task that is next to impossible.

Thus continues the enthralling Shannara epic, a spellbinding tale of adventure, magic, and myth. . . .

Scions of Shannara

I first read this book when I was a teenager. I grabbed a book off my grandparents shelf (it could have been anything) and it was this. I was so pleased to see this finally unabridged. I stayed up all night when I discovered Shannara and did it again with this. John Lee is a great narrator, each character is brought to life and had a unique voice. 10/10.

great story, audio not so much

a great story, and the speaker is great, the audio cuts off his words and makes it hard to understand sometimes, like the last syllable is super quiet.

Loved it

I love these stories and the reading is so good. Very enjoyable. Highly recommend this entire series

Solid story throughout the book.

The performer is not my favorite one. He reads the story choppy. I would of preferred another one.

great story

well written and easy to follow. eager to hear the characters future. ready to hear the next book

amazing story

It is so easy to get lost in Terry Brooks stories. This book will grip you right from the start.

Familiar but enjoyable

I was hungry for more Shannara stories and this filled that hunger.Miss previous reader but the performance was acceptable. Will listen to next book.

Just a few thoughts...

Loved it, a great piece of escapism into the world of the Four lands. John Lees narration was good, must be the accent. Anyway looking forward to starting book two....

Awesome

Read this when it first came out now I'm audio all the way. Terry Brooks, get this series.

Good but not great

moves slow and the story is a bit disheartening. no humor in the back that keeps me hoping that things will get better for the characters
