The Druid of Shannara

By: Terry Brooks

Narrated by: John Lee

The second volume of The Heritage of Shannara, which continues one of the most popular fantasy series of all time

Ancient evil forces remain in control of the Four Lands. To restore the Kepp of the Druid Allanon, Walker Boh sets out on a journey to find the black Elfstone. After narrowly escaping death, he learns that the Elfstone lies in the hands of the Stone King. Now Walker Boh must venture into perilous, unknown lands with a strange band of fellow travelers that includes Morgan Leah, whose once-magic sword has been broken; Quickening, the daughter of the ancient King; and Pe Ell, an assassin who hatches his own dark, sinister plot. 

Thus continues the enthralling Shannara epic, a spellbinding tale of adventure, magic, and myth…

Critic reviews

"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

"If you were delighted and entranced by Michael Ende's The Never Ending Story, you will definitely want to sample one of more of Terry Brooks's books."
--Santa Cruz Sentinel

Pretty Good

Great performance from John Lee, however the story is decent. Like some have said before, this story felt like filler content. I never really felt the urge to continue listening after the breaks I took from the story. The only reason I continued through this book was to get to the next one. The characters that were specific to this book were ok. None felt memorable or very impactful. This story could have been played out much better, but unfortunately the majority of the story was predictable.

the Contnuing Tale of the Shannara descendants

I really enjoyed this 2nd book in the tale that is about the adventures and trials of the Shannara descendants from the original trilogy. This volume is a good read - one that I couldn't put down.

Classic

One of my all time favorites. Terry Brooks almost never disappoints. And this one is one of his best.

Terry Brooks and John Lee: Great for Shannara!
