Title: An uninspired, mediocre effort from Terry Brooks
Product review: One would think that a professional writer would improve his/her craft over time, but in this book, Terry Brooks writes as if he absolutely must, in order to pay bills. Now don't get me wrong - I used to be a big fan of Terry Brooks (and his original 'Sword of Shannara' series), but now I see that he's become mighty fat and lazy. The book reads as if he wrote this in his sleep, making up the characters and plots as he went along, rehashing bits of his previous efforts. Don't waste your time and money on this - I recommend Stephen Donaldson's 'Thomas Covenant' series, if you haven't yet read it.
