Sword of Shannara and the Elfstones of Shannara

Summary: My first e-book, very cool.
Review: Looking for a nifty way to waste time with my new iPaq, I stumbled across the free MS ebook reader software and some of my old favorites, the Sword of Shannara and the Elfstones of Shannara, which I have not read in 15 years.

Downloading the ebook to my iPaq is simple and I'm pretty impressed with the font on the small iPaq screen. I can read it for hours without any real eyestrain and the auto-save feature makes picking the book back up easy.

Overall, no real complaints with this technology.

Summary: Terry Brooks Shannara Series
Review: Mr. Brooks style of writing is ideal for series style books. He introduces and develops characters smoothly, and does not leave you hanging in the heat of things. Unlike other writers of this category there are few slow spots, the need to finish a chapter to find the outcome will leave you sleepless on more than one occasion. Having read all of his books (more than once) I recommend reading them all.
