' Even thought this is the second book of the trilogy, it is as good as the first one. I kind of wish I'd read the mini-series right before this High Druid series, because then I'd remember everything about the Ilse Witch, but they can stand apart just fine. ' I love how Brooks has all these little mini-series in his great big Shannara series. ' the people and the not people in this triology just keep you reading-i love them ' - Mom, Go read my reviews for the other two books.

' the best book of this particular trilogy. His later 'Shannara' works tend to be very formulaic. Seems your always on edge waiting for the next thing to happen. But taken as a whole I quite enjoyed the series. It is really setting the stage for the last book. I found it no worse or better than the first book. ' See my review for Jarka Ruus (High Druid of Shannara, Book 1). I continue to find Brooks's books easy to follow and easy to read. Still can see the similarities to Tolkien in terms of lore and characters but then Tolkien influenced most fantasy writers. The plot is generally the same in each series, but if you like one plot then you like them all. Terry Brooks keeps coming up with new material to keep the interest of the reader. ' I enjoyed this book as I do all of Terry Brooks books.

' Good book, often painful to read what happens to the characters! ' - Andrew, ' Brilliant Terry writing is so lyrical and moves quickly and I was unable to put it down read it in 3 days! ' - Mel, Interesting, but hard to follow out of context. ' This is the first of the series that I've read. Overall Performance: Narration Rating: Story Rating:.This trilogy, The High Druid of Shannara, could be read without reading any of the preceding Shannara books, but Brooks has nicely tied the entire Shannara series together and it's like visiting with old friends while meeting new ones.' 'I've always enjoyed visiting Shannara, and this is no exception. And there, Pen will strike a bargain more dire than he could ever imagine. That means journeying into the Inkrim–a dreaded region thick with shadows and haunted by harrowing legends. But to breach the Forbidding and bring Grianne back to the natural world, Pen must find the fabled Tanequil. Only her young nephew, Penderrin, has any hope of returning her to power. Rescuing Grianne will be merely the beginning of the effort to return the Four Lands to some semblance of peace. Dark magic has opened a gateway to the Forbidding and trapped within it Grianne Ohmsford, rightful High Druid of Shannara.
