Book Log
Book 11
Title: The Elves of Cintra
Series: Genesis of Shannara (2nd of 3)
Author: Terry Brooks
Pages: 376
Genre: fantasy
Completed: February 28, 2008
Comments: I love all of the Shannara and the Word and Void books, which are all connected. This book is the middle book of the Genesis of Shannara trilogy and each book in the trilogy continues right where the last one ends. There are demons, elves, magic, quests, and good versus evil. Also there is a message about the world's future. I can't wait until the third book comes out in August.
I have to look into reading the Shannara short story that Terry Brooks wrote called Indomitable which is in an anthology called Legends II. It's the only story connected to the series that I haven't read and the anthology looks interesting too. "Other authors who bring short novels to this fantastic and rich anthology are Robin Hobb, George R. R. Martin, Orson Scott Card, Diana Gabaldon, Robert Silverberg, Tad Williams, Anne McCaffrey, Raymond E. Feist, Elizabeth Haydon, and Neil Gaiman."
erry has written more than twenty books, three-quarters of which tie into one another in various ways. It can be confusing, as a new reader, to know what order to read the books in without spoiling the adventure.
Here are two different lists-one for new readers just beginning and another for readers who are revisiting the series.
Note: If as a new reader you read the novels in chronological order, you will be significantly spoiling your foray through Terry's work.
