About this product

Product Information

Horrified by the misuse of magic they had witnessed during the First War of the Races, the Druids at Paranor devoted themselves to the study of the old sciences, from the period before the collapse of civilization a thousand years before. Only the Bremen and a few trusted associates still studied the arcane arts. And for his persistence, Bremen found himself outcast, avoided by all but the few free-thinkers among the Druids. But his removal from Paranor was not altogether a terrible thing, for Bremen learned that dark forces were on the move from the Northlands. That seemingly invincible armies of trolls were fast conquering all that lay to their south. That the scouts for the army--and its principal assassins--were Skull Bearers, disfigured and transformed Druids who had fallen prey to the seductions of the magic arts. And that at the heart of the evil tide was an archmage and former Druid named Brona Using the special skills he had acquired through his own study of Magic, Bremen was able to penetrate the huge camp of the Troll army and learn many of its secrets. And he immediately understood that if the peoples of the Four Lands were to escape eternal subjugation they would need to unite. But, even united, they would need a weapon, something so powerful that the evil magic of Brona, the Warlock Lord, would fail before its might...

  • A Must for Shannara Fans; Brooks' Best Book!

    First King of Shannara is the perfect book to start the Shannara series, or the perfect book to read halfway through the series. I have read all of Terry Brooks' books, including the Magic Kingdom series (but let's not go there), and First King is my very favorite. I have read it five times so far, and enjoyed it more each time. If you are a fan of the Shannara series, this is the most important book to read as soon as possible. This book answers many questions faithful readers may have about the Shannara series, and gives excellent background information on many of your favorite characters. It also explains in entertaining detail some of the very important events (such as Shannara's failure to properly defeat the Warlock Lord) that were merely glossed over in the other ...

  • The beginning

  • What a great Book!

    I've always been a fan of the Terry Brooks-Shannara series but I was a little skeptical about this pre-quel. After reading the first chapter I was hooked and read the book from cover to cover in about 10 days! This is great writing and explains the Shannara series very well. Brooks does a good job of tying in another Shannara character so his audience can relate to the later novels. I hope Terry lives to be 125 so he can keep writing me books!

  • Wanted the Prequel to this series.

    Some Students at our HS library love to read Terry Brooks books and I saw this book and knew that we did not have this book on hand. Wanted to keep the students reading and not having to wait to see that we might purchase this book someday. We have many of Brooks' books and it would have been some time before we purchased another but b/c of the cost and S&H were reasonable I decided to purchase and donate to our library. I personally have not read any of these books but may when time allows since these books are always out with a student or two.
