First King of Shannara by Terry Brooks
$9.00
First King of Shannara is Terry Brooks’s epic prequel to the original Shannara trilogy, revealing the conflict that set the legend of the Sword of Shannara in motion.
Long before Shea Ohmsford’s quest, the Druid Bremen discovers that Brona—the fallen Druid now feared as the Warlock Lord—has returned. With the Druids of Paranor divided and the Four Lands threatened by war, Bremen gathers a small company of allies, searches for a weapon capable of confronting Brona, and helps shape the destinies of Jerle Shannara and the young Allanon. The novel explores the origins of the Sword of Shannara, the rise of the Warlock Lord, and the events that lead directly into the original trilogy.
