Bearers of the Black Staff
Bearers of the Black Staff: Legends of Shannara | Terry Brooks
4 posts | 8 read | 10 to read
BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Terry Brooks's The Measure of the Magic. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Five hundred years have passed since the devastating demon-led war tore apart the United States and nearly exterminated humankind. Those who escaped the carnage were led to sanctuary in an idyllic valley, its borders warded by powerful magic against the horrors beyond. But the cocoon of protective magic surrounding the valley has now vanished. When Sider Ament, the only surviving descendant of the Knights of the Word, detects unknown predators stalking the valley, he fears the worst. And when expert Trackers find two of their own gruesomely killed, there can be no doubt: The once safe haven has been made vulnerable to whatever still lurks in the outside wasteland. Together, Ament, the two young Trackers, and a daring Elf princess spearhead plans to defend their ancestral home. And in the thick of it all, the last wielder of the black staff and its awesome magic must find a successor to carry on the fight against the cresting new wave of evil.

Some yummy dinner before my evening of reading begins! For anyone interested, the sandwich is spinach, feta, and roasted red peppers (but I've balanced out the healthy stuff with cheesy tots 😂😂😂)

wordslinger42 @MrBook Making tots made me think of you! Hope things are better your way 💙 4y

I enjoyed the Legends of Shannara books when I read them a few years ago. I need to reread them! #Legend #LiteraryLuck

Karkar I need to read these. I saw him speak a year or so ago and they sound right up my alley. 6y

How could something so wrong grow out of something that had started out so right?

My Christmas #bookhaul! The biggest surprise was the Tokyo Ghoul volumes! Guess my boyfriend got tired of me complaining and being depressed each time I looked for the volumes at HPB and found none 🤣 Tokyo Ghoul is one of my favorite manga series and I have been desperately wanting my own copies (got them from the library originally). The tagged book is the jolabokaflod book my boyfriend got me ☺️

BookaholicNatty I haven‘t read any manga yet so I will have to try Tokyo Ghoul out!!! It looks good! I was going to get Gail Carrigers Parasol Protectorate Series in manga but this looks like something good too!! 6y
RainyDayReading @BookaholicNatty It‘s so good! The action scenes can be hard to follow sometimes but I love the story 🖤 I also recommend checking out FullMetal Alchemist, Attack on Titan, Fruits Basket, The Girl from the Other Side and The Water Dragons Bride 😁 I read her first book Soulless as a manga and I really enjoyed it! So I‘d say you can‘t go wrong with getting it as a manga series. 6y
