Thus begins the enthralling Shannara epic, a spellbinding tale of adventure, magic, and myth. To save his home, Shea must flee, drawing the Skull Bearer after him in menacing pursuit. Soon a Skull Bearer, dread minion of evil forces, flies into the Vale, seeking to destroy Shea. On Shea, last of the bloodline, rests the hope of all the races. The sole weapon against this Power of Darkness is the Sword of Shannara, which can be used only by a true heir of Shannara. Then the giant, forbidding Allanon reveals that the supposedly dead Warlock Lord is plotting to destroy everything in his wake. In peaceful Shady Vale, half-elfin Shea Ohmsford knows little of such troubles. Now comes a fully annotated collector's edition of the novel that started it all-featuring never-before-shared insights into the classic tale, an all-new introduction by the New York Times bestselling author, and replica sketches of some of the long-lost paintings and color plates by the Brothers Hildebrandt that decorated the original edition. Fourteen more Shannara volumes would follow, making the series one of the most popular fantasy epics of all time. THE PHENOMENAL EPIC OF GOOD AND EVIL LIKE IT'S NEVER BEEN EXPERIENCED BEFORE Thirty-five years ago, Terry Brooks brought to life a dazzling world in The Sword of Shannara.
