The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara: Antrax (Abridged) Audiobook

" Good book. Entertaining. The Isle Witch really didn't have an ending and for awhile it looked like this one would. It did have an ending of sorts but really was just an exciting last chapter or two leading to the next book. So all in all it seems that this series is really jusy a 1200 - 1400 page book which is fine with me. Truly like the books so I will keep reading them. "

" Read this a couple of years ago. Enjoyed it, but I haven't felt the pull to re-read. "

" In this sequel to Ilse Witch, Brooks doesn't disapoint. Stranded on the island, the survivors of the first book attempt to stay survivors. But is that possible, when the land contains vicious monsters, and twisted robots constructed of the body parts of humans? "

" the whole post-apocalyptic vibe really struck me, even though i read this in junior high/high school before a lot of that shit was on my mind in a really conscious way. disturbingly technological in a way that makes you think. "

" Good book, but at this point the Shannara books tend to be repetitive. I do like the twist with the Running with the Demon series, as well Genesis. "

" Great second book to the series. Gets a bit old to me how they all never trust the only one who is there and knows what is going on and what to do next. The flying ships add a bit to the story. I've always liked how Terry Brooks can really bring me into his books so that I can imagine them. Fun to try and imagine this group on their flying ships. "

" Excellent fantasy fiction novel! I could hardly put it down! I was all tied up in knots until the end of the book. WOnderful! "

" Book two of the Voyage of the Jerle Shannara series. "

" My dad gave me a signed copy! Sadly enough I sold it when times got tough... But I didn't like this one much and It took me a while to finish it as I kept stopping to read other books. "

" This took me a while to read. At first, I didn't appreciate it that much, but I liked it a lot more by the time I finished. Interesting ideas, but less fantasy-like. I like how this book relates with The Genesis of Shannara series. "

" Fun, but typical Brooks. His later "Shannara" works tend to be very formulaic. "

" Antrax (The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara, Book 2) by Terry Brooks (2002) "

" My only complaint is that I wasn't aware you must have all three of the trilogy. Each individual story is not complete. "

" My fantasy expertise and general knowledge isn't that widespread, but when I picked up ISLE WITCH, for the first time I got 15 pages into it and stopped. The second time I attempted to read it, I got a grand total of 40 pages into it, so prospects for actually getting involved in this book were slim to none. The third and final time I attempted to read ISLE WITCH, I devoured it from cover to cover. Sadly, I have yet to read any more of the series, though I will eventually. "

" I had not read a Terry Brooks novel in 15 years when I picked up Ilse Witch and was pleased to find that his writing has improved over the years and that he is no longer trying to imitate Tolkien. The plot is basically a quest to gather plot coupons, but it is an entertaining Fantasy novel and I enjoyed the flying ship full of Gypsyish Rovers. "

" Ilse Witch (The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara, Book 1) by Terry Brooks (2000) "

" Very fun, but perhaps not quite as memorable for me as some of Brook's books. "

" The Voyage of Jerle Shanara is my favorite Shanara Trilogy!!!! "

" Read this a couple of years ago. Enjoyed it, but I haven't felt the pull to re-read. "

" I just Love this series i couldn't put it down can't to get to the next part of it "

" A great continuation of the Shannara books with a new spin too it. Very interesting. If your not interested in fantasy I don't think that you will like this series. This series so far is a bit different (in a good way) from his first book he wrote in high school (the sword of shannara). "

" good by virtue of starting off a good series. "

" If you have ever been a bit paranoid about computers and computerized machines, like I am, then don't read this book. It will convince you of the dangers of creating artificial intelligence and the cruel logic by which it lives. Run for your lives!! Antrax, or the possibility of it, is at hand!! "

" The ending is very exciting. "

" A good blending of magic and modern science. This is a great shift into how the old world "our modern world" interacts with our favorite heros. The war between free-born and federation is still used to create conflict, but magic vs. the ancient world is enough to make this series a good read. "

" I really enjoyed this book in the series. It is one that stands out among the others. Great read! "

" A nice, quick, and highly entertaining read! "

" Another good series from Terry Brooks. These are quite different in plot from the other Shannara books up to this point. I was really surprised. At this point, it seems that Terry Brooks is starting to target his books more at adults instead of young adults. "

" I really like the excitement and the battles in this book. Of course, with some books, some scenes a bit slow, but I would encourage anyone reading this series to keep on going with it! "

" Bought this book in Italy I think and almost read the whole thing before I got home "

" First book I read of any of the Shannara series and loved it. It is about a brother and sister separated when they were young. Both posses magical powers and end up of different sides of the on going war. Once you read one you will read the next 2 and so on. "

" 5/26/11 - page 157 "

" This book is really boring. I know Brooks plot is is signature (it never changes), so I was prepared for the whole 'druid turns up out of the blue etc etc'. but the storytelling is monotonous, the characters are boring and the whole thing drags on and on. "

" Very gripping. I couldn't put it down! "

" Didn't really hook me until about halfway through. "

" had me @ the edge of my seat "

" I love this series, Terry Brooks added some sci-fi elements. I recommended this series to my friend Steve Salse, who also enjoyed it. It's really fun to read and virtually had no slow parts. There are three books in this series "

" It's been a while since I read it, but I enjoyed the series, as with others by Terry Brooks. "

" Hands down, this is the BEST Shannara book I've read so far! "

" Liked the book, but I still have the same complaints as the first one. On to # 3! "

" The second installment of the 'Voyage' series is just as exciting as the first book, if not more so! This book shows the various crew members of the Jerle Shannara as they fight to survive on Antrax's island. Lot's of danger and adventure and epic thrills. Loved it! "

" Starts off strong, but then flops. Introduced a lot of characters which don't last very long through the rest of the trilogy, with a few notable exceptions, and the whole "flying ships" business is still a little strange to me.... "

" A good blending of magic and modern science. This is a great shift into how the old world "our modern world" interacts with our favorite heros. The war between free-born and federation is still used to create conflict, but magic vs. the ancient world is enough to make this series a good read. "

" This was one of my favorite books Terry Brooks has written. I love the characters. They are easy to like and fun to learn about. Loved this book. "

" My only complaint is that I wasn't aware you must have all three of the trilogy. Each individual story is not complete. "

" This was fantastic! With the same fantasy world but multiple books, my biggest worry is that the stories will start to seem repetetive. This delivered a totally new story, and I loved it! On to Morgawr! "

" Um...maybe it's just me, but I found it to be a little boring. "

" the most scary of the trilogy by far. the wronks gave me the wig. "

" Not a huge Terry Brooks fan (too many characters and plot lines), but this wasn't bad at all. "

" Again the first book is more of an intro to the series and like all "voyage" books their motivation for the journey is pretty weak. Plus, it ends in a terrible cliffhanger and now I have to wait until the next book in the series is available from the library! "

" New characters, new danger! "

" Terry Brooks is always enjoyable, but I prefer the innocence of his previous books. "

" This is Brooks at his best. What more can you ask for in an epic fantasy novel? I am excited to read the conclusion of the series. "

" After taking some time away from Shannara, Terry came back with a bang. This book kicks off a marvelous trilogy that has what I think his deepest and darkest backstory. Fabulous! "

" Haven't read a Terry Brooks book in a long time, and really enjoyed picking up another Shannara series novel. I always loved that this guy was from Seattle. "

" This book made me cry! I would have given it 5 stars except for one thing that happened that upset me! "

" In this sequel to Ilse Witch, Brooks doesn't disapoint. Stranded on the island, the survivors of the first book attempt to stay survivors. But is that possible, when the land contains vicious monsters, and twisted robots constructed of the body parts of humans? "

" I enjoyed reading this. I have gotten hooked on the Shannara series "

" Witch is such a loose term here. Great bk! "

" Second book I ever read by Terry Brooks and was just as captivated with it as I was with the Ilse Witch. "

" Re reading at the moment,love Terry Brooks "

" I really like the excitement and the battles in this book. Of course, with some books, some scenes a bit slow, but I would encourage anyone reading this series to keep on going with it! "

" Book two of the Voyage of the Jerle Shannara series. "

" This was not as fast moving as the first book,but I definatly still give it a thumbs up:] "

" Very gripping. I couldn't put it down! "

" This is Brooks at his best. What more can you ask for in an epic fantasy novel? I am excited to read the conclusion of the series. "

" Antrax (The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara, Book 2) by Terry Brooks (2002) "

" This book just shows the depth of imagination that Terry Brooks has...absolutely blew my mind! "

" Um...maybe it's just me, but I found it to be a little boring. "
