The Sorcerer's Daughter

The Defenders of Shannara

De: Terry Brooks

Narrado por: Simon Vance

The world of Shannara is brimming with untold stories and unexplored territory. Now best-selling author Terry Brooks breaks new ground with a stand-alone adventure that’s sure to thrill veteran listeners and recent converts alike.

The mysterious, magic-wielding Druid order has existed for long ages, battling any evil that threatens the Four Lands - and struggling to be understood and accepted by outsiders. But their hopes of building goodwill are dashed when a demon’s murderous rampage at a peace summit leaves their political opponents dead - casting new suspicions upon the Druids and forcing them to flee from enemies both mortal and monstrous.

Paxon Leah, the order’s appointed protector, knows that blame lies with Arcannen Rai, the vile sorcerer he has battled and defeated before. But there’s no time to hunt his nemesis, if he is to lead the wrongfully accused Druids to their sanctuary. It is a quest fraught with danger, as a furious government agent and his army snap at their heels, and lethal predators stalk them in the depths of the untamed wilderness.

But Arcannen is playing a deeper game than Paxon realizes. Paxon’s sister possesses a powerful magic that the sorcerer longs to control - but Arcannen has not reckoned with the determination of his own estranged daughter, Leofur, who is also Paxon’s devoted lifemate. Leofur sets out on a perilous quest to thwart her father’s desires - while the vengeful Arcannen conjures his blackest magical skills, determined to destroy them all...and claim the most powerful of magics for his own.

the Sorcerers Daughter

Really good books!!!

The sorcerer’s daughter

The story was the weakest of all the books in the Shannara series but the performance was good as usual.

Loved it overall but could be better.

Pro's: Great ending to a trilogy. Climax was very pleasing to the ears. Terry Brooks pulled off another trilogy that I adored and brought another aspect to the four lands that didn't involve a demon invasion, which was relieving. Overall I would recommend this book to read/listen to.

Cons:It was difficult at times to understand which character was speaking unless it was a female character. The only real distinguishable voice that could be heard from one male to another was Arcanan Rye. I found myself at times wondering "Who is talking right now?" Terry Brooks could've done a lot more with the journey of Leofur and Emric. It was extremely bland and dull until their climax, most of their conversations consisted of "You don't understand what's going to happen" and her response of you don't know that. All those chapters spent on explaining how Leofur doesn't understand could've been spent on triumphs and tribulations spent on the journey.

Changes

So many changes. Some of the change comes are quick in coming. Other changes you don't see coming.

Worst ending in the series

There Way everything came to a sudden end and her just dumping him. Horrible plot

Another good Terry Brooks story

This was another enjoyable listen. I'm not sure that Terry Brooks is a great romance novelist but the rest of the story was interesting and kept the action moving within the different threads.

good listen

good listen. I listen on my commute to work and couldn't wait to get back on my car to hear more!

This is another Great Story Line Mr Books❣️

Love the twist and carry on of the story line . So easy to follow . familiar faces and easy to fallow , and a love story too boot😊 I really enjoyed this part but opened me up to re read all the adventures again!!

The Olmsford decedent effect is evident here

Another great story, three volumes in the series that tells the story of the scorcher’s part in the Federation and the Druids developing the 4 lands
