Horror stalked the Four Lands as the Ildatch, ancient source of evil, sent its ghastly Mord Wraiths to destroy Mankind. Only Druid Allanon held the magic power of wishsong that could make plants bloom instantly or turn trees from green to autumn gold. But she, too, was in mortal danger, and Ildatch waited for Brin to fall into his trap....From the Paperback edition.

Another fantastic addition to the fantasy world that houses the Shannara descendants. The author has found a way to bring a great sense of tension to the latest installment in this initial trilogy. Again, another whole host of characters for the reader to become acquainted with. Set in the Eastland, where the reader has not had much introduction to and finds themselves thrust straight into the action that becomes more and more unrelenting as the tension escalates in all aspects of the story. A thoroughly enthralling read and worthy addition to the Shannara canon.

Remains a fantastic read 30 years after first reading this book!
