Silver Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Terry Brooks is a very popular author, the Sword of Shannara is his first work, and he has been writing that series (most are New York Times bestsellers) for over thirty years. This book had only 3500 copies printed, and went on to sell many, many copies between bookclub editions and numerous printings. One of the most Popular fantasy books since Tolkien.
