Synopsis

Long ago, the world was ravaged by ancient Evil. In the peaceful Shady Vale, half-elfin Shea Ohmsford is unaware of the looming threat posed by the supposedly dead Warlock Lord. The only hope against this darkness lies with the Sword of Shannara, a weapon that can only be wielded by a true heir of Shannara, a lineage that ends with Shea. Later, Wil Ohmsford must protect the Elven girl Amberle on a perilous quest to quicken a new magical force, all while being hunted by the fearsome Reaper. An ancient Evil stirs once more, threatening to destroy everything.
