A review by krosebiblios
The Sword of Shannara by Terry Brooks

2.0

I couldn’t finish this book which says a lot... From the 300 pages I read it is obvious that Terry Brooks is an avid Tolkien fan but frankly he didn’t achieve the success of Tolkien’s storytelling. The plot moves slowly between action scenes with very little character development and the dialogue is often laughable. I was looking for a new fantasy series to dive into and unfortunately this one isn’t for me. What a disappointment...
