Eventually the invaders reveal a more human face, but understanding their motives in no way mitigates the savagery of their actions.

As Drisker races to find the ancient knowledge that could free him, Dar goes in search of Tarsha Kaynin, the young woman blessed with the formidable gift of the Copies Location Call 1 of 1.
Just wish I had the patience to let him get a few books ahead of me. Fun summer read. More of the same by Brooks, but fun nevertheless. Looking forward to seeing how he ends it all 2 more books. Apr 02, Mike rated it liked it. Glad I'm not reading these as they're released.
I'd forgotten how much Brooks likes cliffhangers which I absolutely loathe and this one ends on a doozy. More in-depth thoughts to come when I finish the quadrilogy.
Nov 24, Michael Crofut rated it it was amazing. I liked this one even more than the first of this series. The internal struggle of the lead characters laid bare. Cliffhanger ending. Jul 18, Christopher R. Goforth rated it it was amazing.
Jun 24, Mighty Rasing rated it it was ok Shelves: fantasy , I really wanted to like this book. I read the dark legacy of shannara before reading this one to catch up on what has happened to this world. Together with the Skaar, they might be enough to get me reading till the end of this series. Dec 08, Max rated it it was amazing Shelves: favourites. Where do I begin? I really enjoyed this book. I've read everything in the Shannara series, this is book 36 I think.
It ranks in my favourite five! The book is written in a kaleidoscopic view, which I love. At the end some of the characters merge for an ending that was expected, but it was still very surprising.
Throughout the book hinted that the ending might not be definitive, so I wasn't too emotional when it actually happened.
When I begin a book by Mr. Brooks I always need to get used to the d Where do I begin? Brooks I always need to get used to the descriptive storytelling. He describes everything the characters do and say, instead of letting them say it themselves. But as I go on, I get used to it and it works for the story. I also love that the "bad guys" or enemies have some redeeming points and I found myself actually rooting for the Skaar people or even for Tavo.
I can't wait to read the next part! It will be released in June I am impatient already! Jan 31, T. Branson rated it really liked it. I absolutely love the covers for all of the books in this series. In fact, Ajin is by far my favorite character in this whole series. More on that later.
In fact, seconds later, which I always appreciate in sequels. A lot of the burning questions that I had at the end of The Black Elfstone were answered immediately within the opening pages of The Skaar Invasion, namely who is the white cloaked figure and what are these invaders about? We get a rather bland summary of Ajin and her history straight from her mouth as she explains it to Dar Leah. Why she explains it is a bit of an enigma to me.
The evil, nefarious bad guy always seems to wax eloquent and reveal all their plans and motivations to the unwitting hero. As we come to find out, though, Ajin is actually not as bad as we were led to believe in the last book. To be quite honest, I have come to view Ajin as the hero, or maybe an anti-hero, but certainly not the villain in this story. The Skaar Invasion continues to follow Tarsha and Tavo and there are a few confrontations in this book that make things interesting.
Clizia Porse makes sure of that. We also follow Drisker Arc, though his story is a bit lackluster and he disappears from the pages of the book for a majority of it.
Together, they set out to find Tarsha, who was last off searching for her brother. Young street rat, Shea Ohmsford who bears the name of the greatest wishsong magic user of all time gets his own storyline.
By far my favorite POV character was Ajin. I soaked up her storyline and wished I could have a whole book just about Ajin and her rise to power in the Skaar army.
I should have been rooting for the defenders of the Four Lands, but instead I found myself happy when the Skaar people annihilated army after army. Of course, I still feel a soft spot for Dar, Tarsha, and Drisker, but I am hoping that they come to align with the Skaar in fighting against what appears to be a corrupt Federation and that they will also help her gain the recognition that she desires from her father.
Brooks hinted at a possible relationship between Dar Leah and Ajin as well, of which I hope it will come to fruition. That could be just because I was able to jump right in without having to learn a new world. It might also be because Brooks skipped all the boring worldbuilding details since we literally are just continuing right where The Black Elftstone left off. The only saving grace is that I already have an ARC of the next book and can begin right away.
The Black Elfstone ended with a bit of a resolution. Still unanswered questions, but not a whole lot left in limbo, besides Drisker being stuck.
It ramps the story up and I eagerly await the next installment, The Stiehl Assassin. With this book it seems like our main parties are figuring things out, where they need to be, who they need to be allied with and just how far they are going to go to accomplish what they need to.
The ending is a bit harsh, makes a person wonder if the good guys are going to succeed. View all 5 comments. Sep 24, Bill rated it it was amazing. Back to the old Terry Brooks Reads like the Brooks books we know and love, and talk about a cliffhanger ending Excited for the final book, yet bummed to have an end of the story in sight. Jul 31, Wendy rated it it was amazing Shelves: high-fantasy. Fast-paced, the action never slows in a plot that keeps you on the edge of your seat with its twists and turns.
Already an imaginative and creative world builder, Terry Brooks skillfully shapes the intensity and suspense in the Four Lands as the friction escalates without the magic of the Druids to rely on and Ajin makes overtures to the Elfen King. Realistic and compelling as events unfold, the story flows smoothly to an explosive ending that begs for the next chapter in this classic saga. Yet its the twisted mind of wary and unpredictable Tavo Kaynin and the cold, calculating plans of Clizia Porse that spark a dark and foreboding atmosphere.
As always, wandering in the world of Shannara even for a few hours is enjoyable and I eagerly look forward reading Terry Brooks next exciting novel. Jun 29, Ryan rated it really liked it. Good installment, seems to be getting back to the roots of the Shannara beginnings.
Apr 29, Susan rated it liked it. Solid Brooks. I teethed on Shannara and it's nice visiting old friends again. Jan 08, Jeff rated it really liked it. I have been reading Terry Brooks' books for almost four decades. This set comes really close to bringing back the magic of the original trilogy. Looking forward to the last two volumes. Jun 24, Bud Winn rated it it was amazing. Outstanding work. Brook's writing style has evolved over the years, and this book isn't as black and white as his previous series.
There are many shades of gray, and it's hard to cheer for a "good" or "bad" character. I'm looking forward to the last book of the series. Oct 06, Jim C rated it liked it.
