Armageddon's Children

Genesis of Shannara, Book 1

By: Terry Brooks

Narrated by: Nick Landrum

This new series opens a new chapter in the Shannara legend. This is the story of the events before those described in The Sword of Shannara.

Here begins the chronicle of the Great Wars and the destruction of the Old World, the story of how one world was destroyed and another created.

This is the most ambitious project Terry Brooks has undertaken in his remarkable career, a series that will delight and amaze his existing fans and attract a whole new generation of readers.

Critic reviews

"A marvellous fantasy trip." (Frank Herbert)
"Confirms Terry's place at the head of the fantasy world." (Philip Pullman)
"If Harry Potter has given you a thirst for fantasy and you have not discovered the magic of Terry Brooks, you are in for a treat." ( Rocky Mountain News)

Excellent!!

This book is amazing, I enjoyed the Shanarra series, but this is so much better. It mixes Sci-Fi with Fantasy in an original fashion, explaining the transition from our modern world to the world of Fantasy and Magic.
I bought this book to listen too on my morning commute, but unfortunately I was unable to put it away and completed it in 2 days. I hope there is a sequel.
