Orbit Angel Fire East (Word & the Void S.)
In 1977, Terry Brooks debut <I>The Sword of Shannara</I> became a surprise bestseller, launching one of the most popular series in all fantasy fiction. Apart from the ongoing Shannara saga and his later Magic Kingdoms sequence, Terry Brooks has written the novelisation of <I>Star Wars: Episode 1 The Phantom Menace</I>, and the Demon contemporary fantasy trilogy. Following <I>Running With the Demon</I> and <I>A Knight of the Word</I>, <I>Angel Fire East</I> is the finale, and while the books do stand alone there is greater enjoyment to be had by reading trilogy complete. <p>It is 10 years after the events depicted in the previous volume, and again the world is pitched between the Word and the Void. Over the week leading to Christmas Day John Ross (who in his dreams lives the hellish future struggles to prevent them becoming real) and Nest Freemark (who can see the Feeders, supernatural creatures sustained by human emotions) are going to fight their most deadly supernatural battle. Beautifully written and at times very moving, this is a considerably darker sequence than the Shannara books, and will appeal to fans of Clive Barker's <I>Imagica</I> and Stephen King's <I>Needful Things</I>. With strong characterisation, a twisting plot and a real sense of dread and danger generating suspense and excitement, <I>Angel Fire East</I> can be taken as a gripping battle between good and evil, or even as a powerful Christian allegory in the classic tradition of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. <I>--Gary S. Dalkin</I>

Earthlight The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara: Ilse Witch Bk. 1 (The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara)
Terry Brooks' new Shannara epic <I>The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara</I> kicks off its first volume <I>Ilse Witch</I> with the discovery of a mad Elf drifting on wreckage miles out at sea with his tongue and eyes removed, and a map secreted among his possessions. It rapidly emerges that he is a lost prince who set out decades earlier to find old magic on another continent. Walker the Druid persuades the Elf King that both vengeance and prudence dictate a second expedition and assembles the usual crew of talented misfits to travel by airship into unknown territory. The forces of evil are on their way as well--the shadowy figure known as the Ilse Witch and the lizard-like mercenaries forced on her by her untrustworthy ally the Morgawr are closing in too, with acquisition and murder in their hearts.<p>Fans of Terry Brooks will know precisely what to expect from him: undemanding sword--and--sorcery adventure with touches of the gloomily mysterious and of the more complex emotions. This is Brooks at his best and this novel is the least dependent on earlier models as it becomes clear that in this sequence the relationship between good and evil is more complicated than usual. <I>--Roz Kaveney</I>

Orbit Running with the Demon (Word & the Void S.)
John Ross, the tortured, conflicted <i>A Knight of the Word</I> from Terry Brooks's <I>Running with the Demon</I>, finally gets a good night's sleep in the sequel. He buys this moment's peace at the cost of his sacred oath to be a champion of the Word, renouncing that pledge after failing to prevent the slaughter of a group of schoolchildren. Duty and destiny are difficult to elude, though, and soon his former charge Nest Freemark, now a college student and Olympic hopeful, arrives to warn him of his imminent destruction or, worse still, his unwitting fall into the service of the Void. <p>The story winds lazily through sleepy, wet Seattle like a tour bus, steadily building. Everything eventually converges on the homeless shelter where John works with his new sweetheart Stefanie Winslow for über-activist Simon Lawrence, a man his dreams tell him he is fated to kill. A thin mystery clouds the identity of the demon conspiring to deliver John unto evil, but the book's real focus is John's fitful, foot- dragging attempt to fulfil his destiny. <I>Knight of the Word</I> doesn't provide the suspenseful energy of <I>Running</I>, a book that followed Nest through the dramatic loss of her childhood, but it rejoins her as she assumes the responsibilities of young adulthood and--like that period in life--still manages to deliver satisfying, if more subtle, rewards. --<I>Paul Hughes</I>

Earthlight The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara: Antrax Bk. 2 (The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara)
Terry Brooks stretches the formula of his Shannara stories in <I>Antrax</I>, the second volume of The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara, travelling far further than usual into morally grey areas. Brooks' villainess, the Ilse Witch, is driven by a ruthless desire to seek revenge for the brother she wrongly believes to be dead. Her brother Bek tries to convince her of his identity but she cannot let herself listen--she has too much invested in revenge, hatred and her own past crimes. Meanwhile, the other members of Bek's party stumble into the grip of an ancient evil--Antrax, the computer guardian of lost science, which has learned to survive in this age of magic by draining those who seek it out. The Druid Walker, the cowardly Elvenprince Ahren and the flawed young seeker Ryer find themselves in serious jeopardy. <p> Brooks' writing is at its most suspenseful here as his characters confront their demons and find their hidden resources. The dark woods and steel corridors in which they find themselves trapped are both powerfully evoked and precise, if standard, metaphors for mental states. <p> Like its predecessor, <I>Ilse Witch</I>, this is a far darker and in some ways more interesting take on the world Brooks has assembled. <I>--Roz Kaveney</I>

Earthlight Morgawr (Voyage of the Jerle Shannara S.)
<I>Morgawr</I>, the third volume of Terry Brooks' The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara trilogy, continues his productive exploration of guilt, moral ambiguity and adventures in huge airships.<p> The Ilse Witch, Grianne, has found out that everything she has ever believed, all the reasons for revenge which have led her into evil magic, are a lie--that her mentor the reptilian Morgawr is her enemy--and for much of the book she is in such a state of moral and mental collapse that she has to rely on the mercy of her former enemies and her brother, the young Highlander Bek. As he and the other separated members of his party trek through cold forests and dragon-haunted jungles, they find themselves pursued by the Morgawr's demonic allies--by misguided troops from home and finally by the Morgawr himself with a fleet full of zombie aeronauts.<p> This trilogy is about the best thing Brooks has done because it is, much of the time, far less reliant than he has been on the stock materials of fantasy; the mixture of magic and technology here has sparked in him a real inventiveness that can excite even the jaded reader. --<I>Roz Kaveney</I>
