A review by betanine
The Sword of Shannara Trilogy by Terry Brooks, Darrell K. Sweet
Did not finish book. Stopped at 5%.
I remember this fondly from when I started reading it in middle school before moving away and returning it to the school library. At any rate, I remember being excited about this book and wanting to come back to it. I should say, the first of the trilogy.
Reading it now, I am finding that this isn’t the right book for me. At least, not right now. I find the characters promising, but POV changes without warning and long sections of telling rather than showing have left me feeling like reading this is a big work task and I am not excited to get into it. As I own this Kindle copy of the trilogy, I’m sure I will try it again. Perhaps it will click on the next go.
