Reviews with the most likes.
Building on the world of Shannara from the author's earlier works, this one is better than before. By “better”, I mean just relative to previous works. It's a nice read, particularly for readers who are new to the fantasy genre, but it isn't a great read. The pacing can be slow at times, but at least the story starts to pull in directions that are not so obviously referenced from other popular works.
