" The conclusion of a trilogy set in the world of Shannara. The first two books must be read to understand what is going on in this book. This trilogy wasn't his best trilogy although I did like the conclusion of it. I believe that these three books could have been one epic book and would have been more enjoyable. I think the problem was that there were some storylines I enjoyed but they seem to be touched upon instead of thoroughly explored. If you enjoy the author's work, I would say go on and read this. If you are just starting out, I would strongly recommend to start at a different starting point in this realm. "
