About this listen
The Sword of Shannara is the first volume of the classic series that has become one of the most popular fantasy tales of all time.
Long ago, the wars of the ancient Evil ruined the world. In peaceful Shady Vale, half-elfin Shea Ohmsford knows little of such troubles. But the supposedly dead Warlock Lord is plotting to destroy everything in his wake. The sole weapon against this Power of Darkness is the Sword of Shannara, which can be used only by a true heir of Shannara. On Shea, last of the bloodline, rests the hope of all the races.
Thus begins the enthralling Shannara epic, a spellbinding tale of adventure, magic, and myth.

A great coming of age book
It's definitely YA but very well written and narrated. I wish I would have found this book 25 years ago.

Exceptionally Written
The battles were riveting and so strategic. The first few chapters were a little tedious like most big series; having to build the story and characters. After that I was hooked.

This book was amazing! It was very well written and very well performed, and kept me in suspense for the majority of it. Again, absolutely loved it!!
