Rating: Summary: This is a great fantasy! Review: This a great conclusion to THE HERITEGE OF SHANNARA series and I advise anyone who enjoys stories of magic to read this series
Rating: Summary: The greatest tale of good against evil concludes... Review: This book besides what many critics may say is an
excellent book. I must admit that it wasn't no
Sword of Shannara- for I believe that was Terry Brook's greatest book. This book is not for everyone, people with toddler's attention spans for instance will die in some places of the book.
But here also lies a mix of battle, magic, and fast action that mkaes up for that. The one thing that some people just don't understand about the Shannara books is that it's lessons and themes also run within the characters as well as the plot. Which is why this book has a tad more dialogue then more books but not that much. But it really is not all that much more.
I believe if it was not part of a series, it wouldn't of gotten some of the bad reviews it got
[which were not many to begin with]. For the sole
reason that people were anxious and waited & waited for the conclusing series that they expected it to be the most magnificient written,
flawless, and extraidionary book ever wrote in
history.
This is human to do it, just like when
you wait forever to get your birthday presents-
constantly thinking & hoping about it you envision
it to be greater & greater all the time. Until you
reach a point of too high standards for it in the
first place. And people were impatient to find out the conclusion. So if you extremely impatient with
things this book may irritate you. But if you have
a normal patience level it should not even hint to
be a problem.
This is a book well thought out, strong in emotions, and well written. And seriously won't be the publisher's lost if you don't buy it but your
own lost.

Rating: Summary: Fantastically written and concluded Review: This book is a non-stop thrill ride. Terry Brooks shifts back and forth from one part of the tale to the next. There is no pause, no down time and no hesitation. This tale is fantastically woven to conclude the previous three books. Each sub plot intersects perfectly with the others until finally all loose ends are resolved. This series vastly outclasses the original Shannara stories.

Rating: Summary: Another Brooks Masterpiece Review: This book is so amazing it's crazy. It ends the Heritage of Shannara series and Brooks gets better with every book he writes. The characters, are still phenomenal! (And that's putting it lightly!) Seriously, though the characters are a total success. The battle scenes are cool as is everything else about The Talisamans of Shannara. Awesome book!
Rating: Summary: AWESOME! Review: This is another of Terry Brooks' great gifts to readers. It is kind of sad to finish this book, since it is the last of the series so far. All of the great characters are in it, such as Wren, Walker Boh, Par, Coll, Morgan, Cogline, Allanon as a shade,Damson, the mole and more, such as Damson't father, but I will leave that for you to find out who it is.....
Rating: Summary: Great..........no way to describe it! Review: This is one of the finest books I have ever read. Terry Brooks is (in my opinion) the greatest writer to ever write fantasy books. His Shannara series's is unquestionably the best of all of his writings. I cherish all of his books and hope he fills in some of the missing years between the trilogy and the heritage.
Rating: Summary: Grandest Of The Shannara Books Review: This is the best book that Terry Brooks has writen. It has plenty of action and plot and character development and surprise. The only down side is the ending which seems a little too quick. The ending wasn't bad, it just didn't go in-depth enough. In this book Par and Coll get together and Mogan and Matty get together. Matty is a soilder angainst the Federation. And Walker has the coolest part in this book. He fights the four-horsemen of the Apacolyps. Its so cool! The battle scenes in this book are told so well. This is a Terry Brooks that we havn't seen in a long time
