My advice to the narrator would be try to forget you are acting and imagine two regular guys just talking to each other, not two actors, nor two guys in a theatre performance, but just two regular Joes, and one of them is telling the other guy a story. ISBN 3-4 (hardcover) ISBN 6-5 (Mass market paperback) Preceded By The Elfstones of Shannara Followed By The Scions of Shannara The Wishsong of Shannara by Terry Brooks is the third novel in The Original Shannara Trilogy. I realize this is harsh criticism and so I feel it should be accompanied by something that might be useful. For me, it is bad enough that I am forgoing a series that I would love to hear. It is too bad, because the narrator has a good voice as a basis for his performance, he just over acts it to such a degree that meaning is lost. For me it amounts to feeling like someone is doing so much blustering that what they are saying gets lost. I do find punctuated pick ups and slow downs to be a useful narration tool, but this isn't that. Two: when it comes to bits that the narrator seems to think are exciting he uses a fast and forceful "mood" to the reading that sacrifices meaning, and he uses it for long lengths.

I've started and stopped listening to The Wishsong of Shannara 3-4 times but I just can't get past the 12 hours mark. I had this problem with The Sword of Shannara too (also narrated by Scott Brick), but I was able to push through it. The narration is so overly dramatized that it makes the story line hard to follow. Treat yourself and make sure you get the "unabridged" edition so you don't miss a beat. For those who venture into the Shannara realm you will be rewarded with some of the best storytelling of our time. As for the narration, Scott Brick is the MAN! Anyone who thinks otherwise has obviously never heard Charles Keating butcher these novels.

I also found the pace to be much quicker in this book then the other two and much less predictable to figure out who was going to die and what was going to happen. Terry Brooks is an excellent writer and storyteller and the world he creates is dark yet full of hope. There is going to be a good and evil character in it. Brin is able to alter nature with her wishsong, while Jair can only create illusions. In this novel, Brin Ohmsford and her brother, Jair, were born with Elven magic they call the wishsong. If someone writes a book that has a shark kill someone does that mean its a JAWS ripoff? Of course not. 'The Wishsong of Shannara' is the third novel in a series that features members of the Ohmsford family completing quests to save the Four Lands. Contrary to an earlier reviewers comments, this is NOT a LOTR knockoff. The Wishsong is clearly the darkest of the trilogy and the best written. I read this trilogy many years ago and was thankful that there was an unabridged version on audible that allowed me to revisit the Shannara stories. ![]()
