Reviews
Praise for Terry Brooks " The Sword of Shannara is an unforgettable and wildly entertaining epic, animated by Terry Brooks's cosmically generative imagination and storytelling joy." --Karen Russell, New York Times bestselling author of Swamplandia! "If Tolkien is the grandfather of modern fantasy, Terry Brooks is its favorite uncle." --Peter V. Brett, New York Times bestselling author of The Skull Throne "I can't even begin to count how many of Terry Brooks's books I've read (and reread) over the years. From Shannara to Landover, his work was a huge part of my childhood." --Patrick Rothfuss, New York Times bestselling author of The Name of the Wind "Terry Brooks is a master of the craft and a trailblazer who established fantasy as a viable genre. He is required reading." --Brent Weeks, New York Times bestselling author of The Night Angel Trilogy "The Shannara books were among the first to really capture my imagination. My daydreams and therefore my stories will always owe a debt to Terry Brooks." --Brandon Mull, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Beyonders series and the Fablehaven series

Synopsis
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Following The Black Elfstone, The Skaar Invasion is the second book of the epic four-part conclusion to the Shannara series from one of the acknowledged masters of the fantasy genre. The Four Lands are under siege. Wielding a magical ability virtually impossible to combat, mysterious invaders defeat the most fearsome Troll armies, then focus their savagery on the Druid order--and all hope seems lost. Eventually the invaders reveal a more human face, but understanding their motives in no way mitigates the brutality of their actions. Dar Leah, once the High Druid's Blade, has crossed paths--and swords--with their ruthless leader before. So he knows that if any hope exists, it rests in the hands of the Druid Drisker Arc, now trapped inside vanished Paranor. As Drisker races to find the ancient knowledge that could free him, Dar goes in search of Tarsha Kaynin, the young woman blessed with the powerful gift of the wishsong, whose magic could draw Drisker back into the world of the living. But little do they know that what appeared to be a formidable invading force may only be the forerunner of a much larger army--one intent on nothing less than total conquest. Praise for The Skaar Invasion "Like The Black Elfstone before it, and perhaps even more so, The Skaar Invasion is one of [Terry] Brooks's most aggressively political novels. It engages with familiar conflicts and themes, digging deep into the challenges facing humanity and asking--begging--for us to do better. . . . The Skaar Invasion is an exhilarating, intricate portrait of a world at war with itself." -- Tordotcom "Brooks continues the mastery of the world, as may be expected when working in one as developed as Shannara." -- RT Book Reviews, NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Following The Black Elfstone, The Skaar Invasion is the second book of the epic four-part conclusion to the Shannara series from one of the acknowledged masters of the fantasy genre.

    Great seller! The Kansas City, MO Post Office took about 11 days to get the package from "accepted at facility" to "in transit," but the seller was helpful when I contacted them about it. I would do business with them again. Paperback book was in great condition when it arrived! Great price too.

  • Seems like the end when the Skaar come knocking...

    The second installment of the final four volumes of the Shannara series (for now?). Great read, and the quality of the product is excellent.

  • Another great read

    I've been reading Terry Brooks since the beginning, always a fantastic read if you like fantasy. I collect his books in hard cover so for me having the last four sequels to the fall of shannara is great. Love the book and highly recommend it.

  • End of Shannara

    I like the way that Terry Brooks used to write. He got a little caught up in social justice issues.
