A must have for any Shannara fan. This book contains abridged versions of each character, creature, and location in the Four Lands where the Shannara Saga takes place. The new version includes the Knight of the Word info as well. This book definitely ties the whole collection together. Also includes some interesting character drawings. However, this is not a substitute for reading the books. I recommend if you are a fan of the Series.
It was fun to read through this book as I've read about half the Shannara series. This filled in a few blanks on what I've read and whetted my appetite for the books on my shelf! :-)
If you love the Shannara books this is a must read. There are great illistrations and some background story that fills in what the books leave out or leave for you to figure out.
great reference for the books. Especially if you don't quite remember the past characters.
Very informative and interesting. Make sure you get the most up to date copy though as the older ones don't inlcude the books from the last couple of years.
This is a fabulous guide for Shannara, although with the rate at which new books seem to appear will be a little behind the inventiveness of the pre-Shannara history. Definitely worth having at least until a revised edition is available, but not a vital part of enjoying the world of Shannara!
Didn't finish - skimmed
Everything and more about the world of Shannara created by Terry Brooks. Great illustrations and attention to detail.

A great reference for Shannara fans.
