Return to the world of Shannara with the sequel to Galaphile, and discover how the seeds of the greatest evil that the Four Lands has ever known inadvertently grew out of Galaphile's dream for peace—from New York Times bestselling authors Terry Brooks and Delilah S. Dawson.
Years have passed since Galaphile Joss and his life partner Nirianne established Paranor as a way to bring harmony to the Four Lands. Now, their two sons are growing to men in a land of peace and plenty. Admittedly, it is a land that their eldest child, Abronja, finds rather boring. At sixteen, he longs for a way to prove himself—a chance to show he is every bit the equal of his famous father. But when the excitement he has been longing for materializes, it is in the form of an old evil: a dark sorcerer whom his father had defeated, but not destroyed. And who is now back, stronger and more deadly than ever.
It is an evil whose return Galaphile always dreaded—and not just because of what it means for the wider world. His beloved son Abronja was conceived while the dark sorcerer had control of Nirianne, and Galaphile has always feared the sorcerer's influence on the boy.
Abronja, for his part, knows he has never been corrupted by evil. He is fully committed to his father's vision for peace, and is determined to make his name by finally destroying the evil that has so blighted his family. But tangling with dark magic is not a thing to be taken lightly—especially for a young man as yet untested in the ways of magic and the world. Because the repercussions of this encounter could have repercussions for centuries to come.
Terry Brooks has thrilled readers for decades with his powers of imagination and storytelling. He is the author of more than thirty books, most of which have been New York Times bestsellers. He lives with his wife, Judine, in the Pacific Northwest.
