NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • After The Black Elfstone and The Skaar Invasion comes the penultimate volume in the Fall of Shannara, a saga more than four decades in the making.
The Skaar have arrived in the Four Lands, determined to stop at nothing less than all-out conquest. They badly need a new home, but peaceful coexistence is not a concept they have ever understood. An advance force under the command of the mercurial princess Ajin has already established a foothold, but now the full Skaar army is on the march—and woe betide any who stand in its way.
But perhaps the Skaar victory is not quite the foregone conclusion everyone assumes. The Druid Drisker Arc has freed both himself and Paranor from their involuntary exile. Drisker’s student, Tarsha Kaynin, has been reunited with Dar, chief defender of what is left of the Druid order, and is learning to control her powerful wishsong magic. If they can only survive Tarsha’s brother, Tavo, and the Druid who betrayed Drisker Arc, they might stand a chance of defeating the Skaar. But that is a very big if . . . as Tavo now carries the Stiehl—one of the most powerful weapons in all the Four Lands—and is hellbent on taking his revenge on everyone he feels has wronged him.
We are approaching the ending of what has been a incredible weaved tale spanning some 30 some books. We down to the two more books and wow it looking grim folks. It almost as bad as watching the final season of Game of Thrones your really not sure if anyone is going to survive. I really hope that we get a better ending then what Game of Thrones writes are giving us. It been a long time coming this is the 3 book in the final set of the entire collection books. In this one we meet the Stiehl Assassian who is determined to take out a few key characters in this world. We also see more of the relationship between the siblings who have the wishsong powers and a air crafter that may just hold the key to changing the home land of our invaders. I keeping this review short as i don’t want to spoil anything but your in for some devastation that for sure.
