I really did like this book, it was different to the other Shannara books as it had more conversing with other characters. I could picture the scenes very clearly and easily in my mind. One thing I didn't really like in this book was that some of the characters that were involved in the first half of the book, in the second half were neglected, when I really wanted to know what they were doing/thinking. But then again there is other books to come out so maybe it will have more info on them later. But all in all a very good read!

The Voyage of Jerle Shannarra is one of Terry Brooks's best books yet! In this book, the druid Walker Boh gathers a crew of sailors, warriors, etc. for a mission the dead elf king appointed him. The mission is to find out what happened to the elf king's brother set out at see to go where no elf has ever been, and to find and retreave the great magic that is apperentlly found there. This is not an easy task. Just to recover the keys needed to reach the island has many complications, not to mention the horrible fate awaiting the crew when they reach the mysterious land...

Well this is another great book of the Shannara series. It's the best from the "Voyage of Jerle Shannara". It's one of the best Shanara books, infact. It has a lot of action, tremendous battle and really good character development.
With one word - perfect. Brooks is a Master of Fantasy.

Ilse Witch is simply put, another masterpeice. Even after 9 books in the series, Terry Brooks still manages to make it fresh, new, and exciting. It contains all of the elements that made the rest of the series such a success, but adds its own unique twist. The exploration type setting reminds me of the Sword of Shannara in the fact that a new world is being opened up and explored. The Shannara series has always been my favorite of Brooks' worlds and I am thrilled that he is returning to it again. I HIGHLY recommend "The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara: Ilse Witch" to any fans of the Shannara series or anyone who enjoys fantasy in general.

in this series, B shows greater mastery at a detailed level, and introduces much more interesting chracters, carried out in a much more interesting way. also, he gets much more inventive. a really good book with great promise. the plot is carried out in a better and more inventive way, than in his earlier books.

I loooongtime Shannara fan, I hate to say it but Terry Brooks has gone to the well too often. Characters have changed little since the "Sword of Shannara", if at all.
I found lots of flaws with this series. Spent a lot of time talking about mwellrets and how invincible they are. On the contrary, they fall quicker than a temp in a Xena episode. I've also noticed that secondary characters are doomed to the same fate as their counterparts on Star Trek.
Also, I get the point that Druids are secretive and "aren't telling the full story". I'd bet a steak dinner that there are over 1,000 sentences dedicated to that fact throughout the Shannara books.
Finally, did you notice the influence of "Star Wars" in this latest?

I just finished reading this book today! Let me share that those of us who loved the shannara series will fall in love with this book. The book starts out with the famailiar territories and characters we all know and love or hate. Terry Brooks also introduces new characters that enlighten this book, and a new adventure to pursue. It takes a fine twist about the middle to end of the book, that will leave those who have not read it....want to finish it. It ends with a brother and sister facing one another for the first time in years, and gives us time to think about what is going to happen in the sequel.

I have read all of the Shannara series, and think Sword of Shannara is an important work. The Jerle Shannara series is in my opinion, his best work. It takes leaps from technology to science, the past to the future, adolescence to adulthood, companionship to love, accident of birth to conviction of purpose, short term goals to long term achievements, and failure as a part of the path to success. The characters emote, not brood, because they think and feel. The action is vivid, focused, and dramatic. I would recommend this series to anyone.

I hoped, I prayed and look what I am at now: typing this review...
The first was acceptable, the second needed help.
But this one takes the cake as probably one of Terry's worst books to date!
Probably my expectations were too high, given Terry's obvious talents, but to publish such a work? Scandalous!!
Honestly, this book fall flat. It was supposed to be the climax of the series but was actually the dullest of the lot. Well, I really hope the next series will be better.
Alas, I must still finish this review....
I give it the...rating of :( aka 2 stars.

I have not even finished this book yet, but feel that a warning to fans of the Shannara books is justified. This book does not flow as easily or pull you into its storyline like the other 6 before it did. The writing is inconsistent. Every few chapters feel like the old books but you have to suffer through awkward, empty chapters to get to the good ones. I actually found myself skipping pages looking for familar Shannara content. The purity of the Shannara land has been ruined with technology that was never in the other books. The presence of such technology is inconsistent with the old storyline and has never been hinted at before. The book feels forced. So far, I am very disappointed and am forcing myself to finish this book in hopes that it will improve. As a long-time Terry Brooks and Shannara fan I had been looking forward to reading this book and still hope to enjoy the nostalgia of Shannara.

What a great time I had reading this book! Mr. Brooks has yet to disappoint me. It's fun, it's exciting - everything I've come to expect. I nearly cried at the end - not because of the book, but because of the long wait for the next book to find out what happens!~!

Don't run out to buy this if you can borrow it from someone first. It quickly became apparent to me that this was a "chase" story, where all the characters run all over the place trying to get somewhere, and when they finally do, the book is over. Or, in this case, almost over. The characters have inhuman abilities to run and run and run for days, complete with serious injuries/illnesses. The normal human would have collapsed with some of the situations, but Brook's characters carry on, sometimes shrugging it all off with "oh, it's only some broken ribs!" It was this kind of fault that made this book a "one-time-read" for me. Just read it to find out how it all ends, and then return the book!

This is a typical great book in the strain of Terry Brooks. Brooks fans with find nothing new here but will find the great story and action they are used to and are looking for. The ending is terrific and hints at more great storytelling to come in the near future.

I thought this book really was the perfect finish, it had great twists in it, and unexpected events. Terry did himself proud in my opinion!!! After reading The Isle Witch and Antrax I couldn't wait to get started on the third. When I did, I couldn't stop and was disapointed I came to the end so quickly-I couldn't put it down! I found this trilogy refreshing-'The VOYAGE of Shannara!' Loved it, couldn't think of anyhing to criticise it on, except maybe how it pulled you into the book at the saddest parts and nearly had me covering my eyes at the scary bits. Hope this helps!x x x x

I got this preview from Brooks' webmaster. I was excited to see if his exposure to the creativity of George Lucas might have shaken loose a sense of humor in Brooks, something he has always been severely lacking. The answer: not a chance.
Brooks has built a career by "borrowing" the creativity of others--Tolkien [Shannara], Pullman [Running with the Demon], Lucas [Star Wars] and now Robin Hobb and some of the other fae-fantasists. While the characters are certainly a little different [for which I awarded an extra star] the writing is the same clunking, lackluster prose he has always had.

This is one of the best Shannara books that I have ever read. This new book starts out 100 years after the last Shannara book left off, and is a great read. The books starts out with Walker, one of the characters from the last book, but also has other new characters, new villians, and a completly new quest as they undertake a search for lost magic. This book is everything that a Shannara novel is, with magic swords and an epic quest and fights against evil, and it completly surpassed all my expectations of it!

I'd never been a fan of Brooks or Shannara; captivating prose is one thing if it steals the scene in the first few pages, but sustaining the thrill throughout the book has never been a strength of Brooks, and in this case the book falls flat on its face. Giant eels? Oh please.
The humdrum, cliched 'gathering of the Company' and the hollow characterization play second fiddle to the laughable plot twists however. I bought this book after reading the excerpt, hoping that the author's style had gained some flavor and maturity over time. As it turns out I just wasted my money.

The only problem I have with the author is the time between novels. I literally hound the book store attendants whilst in the midst of a series. He has a way of making you feel for the characters and maybe care a little bit about them. You tend to take on the mood of his novels and even the individual characters within. So much so, that being caught between books leaves me slightly agitated until I have the next book in the series. In Short - Another enthralling epic from the best fantasy author I've ever read. (please hurry with the next one Mr. Brooks! :-)

If you are a Shannara fan than you can't go wrong here. All three books are very good and you get a nice discounted boxed price. I think Brooks Shannara stories are all worth reading for any fantasy fan.

I love Terry Brook's writing but when I found this book in paperback and found that the story was continued in the second book, I was very upset. I had to buy the second book in hardcover just to continue the story. The story will suck you in and not let go and the 3rd book is not out yet so beware if you start this series!!!!!!!!!

I never had the desire to read any of Terry's books, despite the Shannara series being such a success. Ilse Witch happens to be my first of his books. I would have to say that Ilse Witch isn't that fantastic a book. The story development is good but not superb. But the Shannara story is a VERY compelling one and so are the characters in the story. So enticing in fact that it as prompted me to read the rest of the Shannara series. I do believe I have become a fan of Brooks...

vicky macdonald
Ilse Witch was a relatively quick read, and it was entertaining, but it lacked what I seem to remember as thorough descriptions of the setting from the previous Shannara novels. I just did not get the sense for where the characters were. Also, the airship bit is just a little too far flung for my taste. I almost did not bother reading this book because of that.

Galring inconsistentcy in Antrax compared to Ilse witch
p439 Isle Witch
p62 Antrax
Why does Rue Meridian remember Hawk using his dagger to pick lock when she did it with a pick from her boot in real time action in Ilse Witch?
If he wrote both Brooks would remember this yes?
He must use a Ghost Writer!!!

Well well well..... Mr. Brooks is at it again!!
His most recent outing in the Shannara series is rather good, i must say. Although a bit draggy at times, the book magically sustained my interest throughout.
The druid, Walker is back togeter with good ol' Truls Rohk. Fans of them take note.
All in all, this books shows that Terry hasn't lost his magic touch yet.

In many respects this is a very stock-standard run-of-the-mill work from Brook's literary cookie-cutter. The story line moves quickly enough to keep the reader mildly interested, but the characters in the novel lack any depth, and the writting style is hopelessly amateurish and difficult to read. Not one of the best fantasy novels I've had the pleasure of reading - certainly no Tolkein anyway. But probably worth a quick flick if you get the book as a birthday present (like I did), and have nothing better to do (hey - I was on holidays !)

A thoroughly enjoyable book with lots of action and plot twists. The characters vary considerably. I find Bek and Quentin unbelievably tedious and identical to the bland characters in other books. The parts focusing on them were rather dull. However others such as Walker, Truls and the Rovers more than made up for this and I would definately recomend the book.

michelle lacrosse
This book is painful. A half a page of action followed by 5 agonizing pages of character self-reflection. When separate threads come together, the characters rehash everything they experienced to their friends, forcing the reader to sit there and reread everything all over again. Has the real feeling of being forced to fill the publisher's required length. ... The original trilogy was the best. If you want real fantasy, give George R.R. Martin a try (A Game of Thrones, etc.)

kate peterson
Great book, I, for one, would love to see Terry stick with the Shannara series even after the next 2 in this trilogy come out. This book answers many questions that have been hinted at in earlier Shannara series. It starts a little slow, but quickly picks up to a great exciting adventure. Terry's great story telling and character development keep him right up there with Jordan and Goodkind as fantasy's best writers. Good work Terry!!

I could not put this book down. The storyline was excellent and kept me enthralled. I would recommend this book to everyone who loves fantasy fiction. The ending made me crazy especially when I realized that I have to wait for the next book. I anxiously await the sequel. This author just keeps getting better...

LOVE IT! no kidding, i really do. in the Ilse Witch, follow a young boy in a quest to find a wealth of magic, find out his true identity, and find his heart. you will fall in love with the characters, just like me! if you don't read this book, you have been warned.....YOU R MISSING OUT!

When I read the Talismans of Shannara I found only one flaw. It ended. I read this book as soon as it hit the stores and was impressed. I thought that the book was a fine example of Terry Brooks' style and I enjoyed how it pick up soon after the time that Talismans ended. If you like the series or just enjoy a good read, get this book.

Once again Terry Brooks has proven he is still one of the top fantasy fiction writers. This trilogy started out slowly but got better with each book. Morgawr finishes it off with a typical Terry Brooks finish. The only negative thing I can say is that he left a few threads hanging. Hopefully he will pick up on those in his next book.

Terry Brooks does it again with this awesome start to a new series. Adding to the already great Shannara series, this book has it all: the mysterious druid leading on the expidition into unknown realms, a wide range of characters from each of the races to accompany him, and of course, the amazing plot twists and awesome character development. Obviously another spectacular book by the great Mr. Brooks!

marina romano
Having read every other book in this series i found the new trilogy to be average fair when it comes to the shannara series. As with nearly every new shannara series the only returning character is the druid. All and all a great read and I highly recomend it to any fan of the series. To quickly respond to some other feedback, this is a fantasy novel and if you read through it thinking "that cant happen" of course you will not enjoy it.

martha garvey
This novel started out slowly, but quickly gained speed, rising to the quality of Brooks' previous books. I was almost disappointed that it is a series (didn't notice when I checked it out), because now I'll have to wait a while for the next one! I recommend this book to any fantasy enthusiast.

I am dissapointed by the Voyage of Jerle Shannara set. Its the same story (Brin and Jair) of The Wishsong. Sister is caught up by evil, brother has to save her. A Druid dies, another takes over. It seems the plot was just twisted a little bit and the names were changed.
The first 10 books were ok, the rest have much to be desired.

I loved this book. I have read every book by Terry brooks (minus Starwars Episode I and Hook) and I can tell you that this is his best one. So if you have ever likes any Shannara you will LOVE this book. I hope everyone who reads this will read Ilse witch and then (soon) Antrax.

A return to vintage Terry Brooks. After the Good and Evil series, which was good, The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara is a return to Greatness. A return to great character development -- Alannon is reborn in Walker (He is the man)! The rovers (Big and Little Red) really came to life in my imagination. A "must read" for Brooks' fans.
Conclusion:
I have ridden the Jerle Shannara!!!

Once again I have been captured by the creativity and imagination of Terry Brooks. I have read the entire Shannara series and have loved every word. In fact, I have read them all more than once. I look forward to reading the sequels to Ilse Witch and as many other books as this author chooses to write.

This series has renewed my faith in Terry Brooks. The last series of Shannara books were too long and meandered waaaaay too much. This trilogy was well paced. Be warned, it is fairly gruesome, at times bordering on horror, but worth the time to read. I finished this book in two days because I couldn't put it down.

christina garris
I agree with the reviewer who wrote "much prose about nothing". Very disappointing. Have read every Terry Brooks book up until now but this will be the last. Wasted money on these 3. Where is the real Brooks? The one who wrote the earlier Shannara? It's almost as if these books were written for young teenagers or children. So many words but very little going on. If you want a good fantasy series get into the George R. R. Martin one.

maureen duffin
WOW! Terry Brooks outdoes himself in the next instalment of the Shannara books. Plot twists and surprises help keep the reader on their toes. New characters (from your favourite old families) show depth and inventiveness. And some old favourites are along for the ride (hint hint: WALKER BOH). I just can't wait for the next book to come out!

This was the first Terry Brooks book I have ever read, and it blew me away. I loved the story all the way through. Now I have to go back and read all the other series he's written previous to this one for history and back ground on the people, such as Walker. By then book two Antrax might be out.

I loved this book!! Brooks does it again. I have read most of the other Shannara books, and this one is in the top three. This book keeps you reading, and is a great fantasy for former fantasy fans, and those who want to read quality fantasy books. I definately recommend this book for anyone, especially Terry Brooks fans.

I finally finished the Voyage of the Jerle Shannarra Trilogy. The 1st book took me a month and 1/2, and the next 2 books I skimmed through and finished both in 2 days (action novels - hehe). I never saw a book end so many scenarios with "suddenly everything went black". The plot is so-so, a few no-bodies get killed, the bad guys lose, and the Druid's ultimate plan eventually comes true with a twist, but it's ok... because it was.. "meant to be". I kept asking myself that if the druid was so smart and far seeing, he could have worked out a better solution than this though! I give the book an A for creativity, but a C-minus for leaving too many unexplained logistics.

The original Shannara were good, Heritage was a nice read, but what is this? Not bad by itself, but read one of his older books and the entire book seems impossible and idiotic. Sorry, but does Brooks know how to not contradict himself?

Sorry to all you who grew up reading Shannara, and thinking this is what passes for fantasy. I recommend you look backwards in time [Charles Williams, J R R Tolkien] or forward [George Martin, Robin Hobb, Elizabeth Haydon] if you want to see some talent in the field. Brooks cruises through, making use of other people's ideas as always. This book stinks.

I haven't read a poor one by Brooks yet. He is definitely one of my favorite authors, the Ilse Witch is so great. I wish it was about 8 times as long though. The story ended at such a pivotal moment. I LOVED it anyway, as well as Antrax.

I have been reading the Shannara books since I was 12. Having read the latest offering all I can say is that it is probably about time for Terry Brooks to retire. The story is old, the characters have been done. Let us remember you for the great author you once were, instead of the hack you have become.

this is by far one of the greatest series of books ever it is however a continuation of the Shannara series wich means you should read all the books to truely understand the world Terry Brooks has made the charicters are alive in the pages and it is on par with anything else out there ever made
