This story was more original and interesting (to me) than the first. I kinda zoned out during the long battle scenes, but I accept that they may have been necessary to describe the magnitude if the evil.

I really enjoyed reading this again. Sure it's derivative, but I like fantasy and this holds up pretty well. I read it first time in my late teens. I'm now in my late 40s and some books I've tried rereading don't stand up well at all, such as the Belgariad. The writing in the Shannara books is pretty decent though.

Was okay in 1984, but hey, that was some time ago. I don't really remember that much.
