The Sword of Shannara
Publication date: 1977 in Hardcover by Del Rey Books
Copyright � 1977 by Terry Brooks
�����Long ago the world of Shea Ohmsford was ruined by the wars
of ancient Evil. Now mankind must compete for the Earth with many other races-- gnomes,
trolls, dwarfs and elves. But Shea, the half-human, half-elven adopted son of an
innkeeper, knows little of such troubles. Shady Vale, where he grew to manhood, seems a
haven for peace.
�����Then into Shady Vale comes the giant, forbidding figure of
Allanon, possessed of strange knowledge and even stranger Druidic powers. To Shea, he
reveals that the evil Warlock Lord, supposedly long dead, is once again plotting to
destroy the world. Against this Power of Darkness the sole effective weapon is the Sword
of Shannara, which can be used only by a true descendant of Jerle Shannara. Shea is the
last living heir�� on him rests the hope of all races! When Shea protests that
he is no hero, the Druid states that he must reclaim the Sword. In the morning Allanon is
gone, leaving behind a mysterious warning note.
�����Soon a Skull Bearer, dread minion of the Warlock Lord, flies
to the Vale, seeking to destroy the last heir of Shannara. Rather than risk destruction
for the Vale, Shea and his skeptical half-brother Flick flee, drawing the Skull Bearer
after them. Allanon's cryptic orders have directed them to Culhaven, home of the dwarfs.
Somehow they must go there to await him, despite the Skull Bearers and other unknown, dire
perils. And beyond Culhaven, they must enter the ravaged Northland, where the Warlock Lord
holds total dominion.
�����Thus begins the seemingly hopeless quest of a simple man
against the greatest power of evil the world has known. Valiant comrades join him against
a host of foes and soul-wrenching dangers. Terrors and wonders increase as the
overwhelming armies of the Warlock Lord move toward war. But in the end, Shea alone must
confront the Lord of Evil without knowledge or hope to guide him.
�����The Sword of Shannara is that rarest of all novels--a truly
believable, wholly satisfying wonderful story of epic fantasy.
