Summary: Angel Fire East
Review: Angel Fire East was a great book for me in many ways. I had just moved back to my childhood home because of my mothers illness. Terry Brooks captured the feeling for me very well. I had been waiting to get a copy of this book because I missed the characters and I was happy to see them again. Life does not treat everyone equally and this was shown in the way everyone popped up a little wearier. Terry Brooks also captured the spirit of addiction in the demons and Brenda.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: angel fire east
Review: I felt Angel Fire East was a wonderful conclusion to the Terry Brooks trilogy. He used wonderful description in this book and made you feel like you were actually there. You get a real felling as to what the author was feeling at the time. I read that this book is loosely based on his childhood and th town in which he grew up. In this book Nest Freemark, one of the main characters, has grown to adulthood and is trying to come to terms with her magic. The descriptions of Christmas was wonderful. I felt this was a good book and would recomned it highly.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Big disappointing finale to the series
Review: So I found myself disappointed with the last two books
of this series. What began as a book that easily made my
top 20 fantasy novels, RUNNING WITH THE DEMON, took a slide
down to the mediocre mud pits of fantasy.

The main problem I had was that this book returned to
the hometown and created a watered down version of the first book. Whereas the first book had heart and emotional
resonance, this had neither. Whereas the first book had
secrets and laid them out beautifully before revealing them,
this book had none. Whereas the first book made me love the characters, this book turned me away from them.

I know Mr. Brooks has done some excellent works. The one
thing I can think of in his defense is that he was writing
two novels at the same time so doing both may have diluted
his work.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Terry Brooks please stick to Shannara!
Review: Although this book is a page-turner, that's unfortunately about the best I can say for it. A long time fan of Terry Brook's Shannara series, I thought I'd try his Word-vs.-Void series. It was disheartening. The semi-religious overtones were more wearying than enlightening. Brooks is best when he sticks with the pagan world of Druids and Elves. I never became involved with either Nest or John, and actually found myself rooting for Penny Dreadful and the demonic crew upon occasion. At least they were interesting.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Worth the wait
Review: Angel Fire continues this excellent story. It is a real page turner that has a satisfying ending, that may not be an ending. I highly recommend this for all ages.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: AWFUL, AWFUL, GARBAGE
Review: Most of the story lacks suspense, any sense of danger or action. When the action starts during the last few pages, it's over quickly. The villian isn't too tough and is quickly defeated.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best book of the series
Review: I own all three books in this series, but Angel Fire East is the only one I own in hardcover. This book is wonderfully written, and has some very interesting plot twists in it. As this review is titled: "Best book of the series".

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Findo Gask!
Review: To be honest, I cant really remember this book much - it was fairly average compared to his Shannara books which are superb. But on a drive to Saint Andrews in Scotland recently, I drove by a little town called ....Findo Gask! Is this where he gets his characters? Is he connected to the most beautiful and fantasy-like country in the world? I wish he'd get back to Allanon and Shannara...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best book of the series
Review: I've read most of Terry Brook's novel (except the Lanowar series, I tried to read it, but lost interest quickly), and this is by far his best book ever.
