The Elfstones of Shannara by Terry Brooks
5.0
Reread this over the past two days. I first read it in middle school. I still love Shannara as much today as I did when I first read them.
Elfstones was never a particular favorite of mine (though I love Shannara as a whole). I can say now that I enjoy it more as an adult than I did when I was younger. The whole emotional trauma for Wil there at the end still ticks me off (which is why Elfstones wasn't my favorite out of the original trilogy), but I now realize how much depth there was to the book that I missed the first time around.
Mr. Brooks is a master of the craft, and my hat is off to him (metaphorically, I don't have a literal hat).
