Title: Terrible book
Review: I have a kindle and bought the trilogy which was fairly expensive for a kindle book. I purchased it based on the great reviews it had. I didn't even get through the first chapter. The author must have been a high school English teacher since it is written for proper grammar without any interest in communicating as normal people would communicate. This was so irritating to me I lost complete interest in it. No one (even fantasy characters) talk this way. I've annually read LOTR and the Hobbit and have read A song of fire and ice series from George Martin and waiting on the latest. All these were written to communicate on the level of each character based on their role but in "The Sword of Shannara" everyone must have graduated from Cambridge University. Take a look at the first chapter before you buy. This type of thing might not bother you.
Is the review positive or negative?
