Review title: A poor carbon copy of Tolkien.
Product review: Wow. Before attempting to read the Iron Tower trilogy, I thought that The Sword of Shannara could not be surpassed as a pure rip-off of Tolkien. I was wrong. Suffice it to say that if you have read Tolkien, this is a poor quality carbon copy of the Lord of the Rings not worthy of your time. If you haven't read the Lord of the Rings, then read that series and forget this one. Finally, for those of you who gave this series a ten (or I suppose its five stars now) you evidently either believe that this series is either as good as or better than LOTR, or you have never read LOTR. In either case, I feel sorry for you.
