From New York Times bestselling author Terry Brooks comes a thrilling stand-alone novel in his legendary Shannara series—the perfect place for new listeners to begin.

After taking up his enchanted sword against the dark sorcerer Arcannen, Paxon Leah has become the sworn protector of the Druid order. Now a critical hour is at hand, as a beloved High Druid nears the end of her reign and prepares to pass from the mortal world to the one beyond. There is little time for Paxon to mourn his friend and benefactor before duty summons him. For in a distant corner of the Four Lands, the magic of the wishsong has been detected. Paxon must accompany a Druid emissary to find its source—and ensure the formidable power is not wielded by the wrong hands.

But danger is already afoot in the village of Portlow. Gentle traveling minstrel Reyn Frosch possesses the uncanny gift, and curse, of the wishsong. And now his coveted abilities have captured the malevolent interest of none other than Arcannen—whose quest for power is exceeded only by his thirst for vengeance. The lone survivor of a brutal assault on a notorious pirate city, the sorcerer is determined to retaliate against the Federation’s elite military guard—and use the devastating power of the wishsong as his ultimate weapon.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Brimming with magic . . . a bubbling cauldron of fantasy and intrigue. This novel shines best through a full-bodied embrace of its most wildly imaginative magic and artifice, which is careful not to overshadow the story’s greater half, fueled by a complex but well-constructed manifold of motives. The intrigue, grounded in a world that strays just enough from a traditional fantasy universe to elicit delighted curiosity, guarantees a solid fantasy read, especially for those already drawn into [Terry] Brooks’s vast world of Shannara.”—Booklist

“Brooks’s fans and those who prefer their fantasy on a smaller scale will appreciate the more personal but still high-stakes turn in this famous world.”—Publishers Weekly

loved the book, can't wait til the next one. can't wait to see what Paxon Leah will be doing with his life. Wish it would've turned out the way I wanted but what kind of trilogy would it be if it ended that way?

can't wait to see what Paxon Leah decodes to do !

I almost did not finish the first book in this series.. I'm so glad I went back and did after 2 years.. because the second book has been amazing. it starts off kind of slow but he introduces some awesome characters and story lines Midway through and by the ending there is no way I can go on not knowing what happens in book three. Simon Vance narration is spot on! Thanks Terry for another great journey into Shannara!

Terry at his best from mid to end!

I'm trapped. Anticipating the third (maybe the conclusion?) of the series. So glad I have it in Audible library so I can listen again and be fresh in Brooks' web before the untangling of the third book. Unanswered questions and certainly a questionable title for this part of the story. Never mind that I've read all his collection and "thought" I knew his style, the ending was unexpected and took me off guard. Waiting than, not so patiently for Book 3.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Simon Vance?

I would but he needs to try and continue with the names of characters as in other series. i.e. Leah is not pronounced Lee but Le-ah.

Poor use of character names

Simon Vance is great as usual. The story itself is was really good, piggybacking off the last book and giving more depth to Paxon Leah. However, there is one glaring issue with the ending. I am not the one for spoilers, but dang it who wouldn't have explained that they're family?? Hopefully it gets cleared up in the next one.

One of his better

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. There were moments that keep you on the edge of your seat and the ending was very satisfying. Really looking forward to the next,& last, book in this series.

A great read is always....
