Tuck Underbank is a Warrow -- think a hobbit with shoes and "large jewel-like eyes" -- living in the peaceful Boskydells. When an unnaturally cold winter strikes and the evil Modru threatens the world, he and a number of his fellow Thornwalkers go to the High King's aid. But a vast expanse of lightless blizzard called the Dimmendark (sounds bad, doesn't it?) is spreading over the land, and Tuck soon finds that the "dark tide" is going to swamp them all.

Yet Par still has some power of the Wishsong. A message from Allanon arrives: 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.

Pronunciations and Pacing
This is always the big issues, narrators that are incapable of pronouncing common fantasy terms like scimitar (pronounced by this guy as skimitar), winding not like winding a clock but like wind the movement of air... and the way he pronounces Ghul just kills me, not only the "ga-hool" but the tone he takes when he does it. Terrible.

Great Adventure!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Mr. McKiernan offers you a great adventure that leaves you imagining how you would perform if you were part of the heroic group. You may even imagine yourself as a new character with unique strengths and intelligence that helps the heroes to win their battles within and without. You never feel like you are a spectator. You feel like you should be an active member contributing to their objectives and their ultimate goal.
Fantasy is like a sport in which you wish that you were there. Enjoy the sport!
