Terry Brooks - Shannara
Has anyone read the Shannara trilogy, the Heritage of Shannara four part series or the new Voyage of the Jerle Shannara series.
I once heard a quote "If tolkien built the bandwagon then Brooks set it rolling. What do you think?

I read them all...
Nowhere near as good as tolkien, but interesting all the same.

I read The Sword of Shannara, and thought it was pretty good. I just couldn't get into any of the others, though.
