The Sword of Shannara is the first volume of the classic series that has become one of the most popular fantasy tales of all time.
Long ago, the wars of the ancient Evil ruined the world. In peaceful Shady Vale, half-elfin Shea Ohmsford knows little of such troubles. But the supposedly dead Warlock Lord is plotting to destroy everything in his wake. The sole weapon against this Power of Darkness is the Sword of Shannara, which can be used only by a true heir of Shannara. On Shea, last of the bloodline, rests the hope of all the races.
Thus begins the enthralling Shannara epic, a spellbinding tale of adventure, magic, and myth.

if you are a regular reader of fantasy then this story appears to be a collection of cliches. the author has a habit of using overly florid descriptions and the story routinely uses the 'amazing, miraculous, unexpected and unexplained escape' tool to extract the hapless heroes from the jaws of death or capture. I keep thinking 'oh crap the authors not going to.......' but he does.
The saving grace is that Scott Brick is narating, this guy can turn a shopping list into an enthralling yarn.
If you are new to this form of fantasy dive in and enjoy.
iI hope it improves as I try to get some value from buying it.
a never ending parade of cliches. welll narated
