Video: Terry Reads New Shannara & Landover Excerpts

Terry visited the University Bookstore in Seattle, WA on June 13, 2015 in support of his new Shannara novel, The Darkling Child.

Here are the times in case you want to jump around:

BrooksBlog: THE SHANNARA CHRONICLES Wraps Filming

cover-theshannarachroniclesFriday, June 12th, marked the finish of the filming of the Shannara TV show in New Zealand. With filming now complete, attention will be focused on editing and refining the various episodes of the first season and the telling of the story of The Elfstones of Shannara in video form.

I am left with mixed feelings.

On the one hand, I am greatly anticipating the adaptation. I love the cast; I think each inhabits the character they play. I am in awe of the sets, both indoors and out, which are so...

Signed Copies Available: THE DARKLING CHILD

brooks-darklingLast weekend, Terry visited The Signed Page and signed 600 copies of The Darkling Child!

It was his largest signing to date. That’s saying something; he has been signing since 2001. He worked harder than usual this time, of course, that amount of books a lot to take in. Many of you wanted personalized copies and Terry happily obliged but those take time. He signed for about five hours. That’s how much he loves you guys!

A few days before the signing, I prevented new orders from happening. In...
