The Elves of Cintra by Terry Brooks

The Elves of Cintra (Genesis of Shannara, #2)The Elves of Cintra by Terry Brooks

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I really enjoyed this second book of the triology.
It continues the stories of Logan Tom, Angel Perez, The Ghosts and The Elves of Cintra which is obviously leading up to the climax in book three.
Well written, and very dark following the human apocalypse.

Armageddon's Children by Terry Brooks


Armageddon's Children (Genesis of Shannara, #1) Armageddon's Children by Terry Brooks


My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I really enjoyed reading this book.
It is set in a postapocalyptic world where civilization has all but collapsed and people are trying to exist. It has a bit of everything from Demons to Elves, magic and monsters.
Hawk is the leader of the Ghosts, a group of children trying to exist in the ruins of a delapidated city. Then there are Angel and Logan who are Knights of the Word trying to save world as they battle the demons from The Void.
Well written and highly enjoyable.

A Princess of Landover by Terry Brooks

A Princess of Landover (Magic Kingdom of Landover 6) A Princess of Landover by Terry Brooks


My rating: 3 of 5 stars

It's been a few years since I read the Landover novels and hadnt realised he had released this one.
I found it really easy to get back into the series and enjoyed the book very much. Terry Brooks has an easy writing style and the words flow effortlessly on the pages.

Synopsis curtesy of Amazon.co.uk

Princess Mistaya Holiday hasn't been fitting in too well at Carrington Women's Preparatory. People don't seem to appreciate her using her magic to settle matters in the human world. So when she summons a dragon to teach a lesson to the snotty school bully, she finds herself suspended. But Mistaya couldn't care less - she wants nothing more than to continue her studies under Questor the court magician and Abernathy the court scribe. However, her father Ben Holiday, the King of Landover, has rather different plans in mind for her. He thinks he'll teach her about perseverance and compromise by sending her to renovate Libiris, the long-abandoned royal library. How horribly dull. But before long, Mistaya will long for the boredom of cataloguing an unfeasible number of derelict books - for deep within the library there lies a secret so dangerous that it threatens the future of Landover itself ...
