Product Description:
Across the ruined landscape that is America - hopelessly poisoned, plague-ridden, burned, and besieged by demon armies bent on exterminating all mortal life - two pilgrims have been summoned to serve the embattled cause of good. Logan Tom has journeyed to desolate Seattle to protect a ragged band of street urchins and the being known as the gypsy morph, who is both mortal and magical, and destined to save mankind unless he is destroyed. Likewise, Angel Perez has her own quest, one that will take her from the wreckage of Los Angeles to a distant, secret place untouched by the horrors of the nationwide blight - a place where the race of Elves has dwelled since before man existed. But close behind these lone Knights of the Word swarm the ravening forces of the Void.
As the menacing thunder of war drums heralds the arrival of the demons and their brutal minions in Seattle, the young survivors who call themselves the Ghosts are forced to brave the dangerous world of gangs, mutants, and worse to escape the invasion. And Logan Tom must infiltrate a refugee compound to rescue Hawk, the leader of the street urchins, who has yet to learn the truth about who and what he is. Meanwhile, Angel Perez has joined an equally urgent mission: to find the Ellcrys, a fabled talisman crucial to protecting the Elven realm against an influx of unspeakable evil from the dread dimension known as the Forbidding. But Angel and her Elven allies must beware - for a demon spy, with a monstrous creature at its command, walks among them.
As the legions of darkness draw the noose tighter, and the time of confrontation draws near, those chosen to defend the soul of the world must draw their battle lines and prepare to fight with, and for, their lives. If they fail, humanity falls.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - As ever
Addictive. Not as as epic as some of his earlier work. But for long time fans it is both comfortable and novel.
Rating:  - The Elves of Cintra
Great follow up book. Now eagerly anticipating book no:3.
I only discovered Terry Brooks as an author this year, but feel a little like when I first read The Lord of The Rings way back in the late 60's. Fortunately he seems to have written a great many more books so lot's of treats in store.
I had to spend the whole day reading it!
Rating: - Captivating! An Elven Jewel!
From start to finish, "The Elves of Cintra" will captivate you, take you on a whirlwind literary ride of immense proportions, and leave you hungry for the final instalment! I couldn't put this book down and had to restrain myself from devouring it in one sitting. I purposefully took my time to read it in order to extend the pleasure I was gaining from it. Mr. Terry Brooks is a true Master Storyteller!
Although Hawk features very little in the novel, as the last one will be focused mostly ... Read More
Rating: - Great entertaining read
Armageddeon's Children was my first Terry Brooks novel and I was hooked on this trilogy once it was finished. This book, the 2nd in the trilogy, did not fail to earn my love. It picks up exactly where the 1st book left off. As the title suggests, most of this book is about the elves. Hawk isn't left out but there isn't a lot of his story in here. Angel is much more likable than the first book and Logan Tom is, in my opinion, the best Knight of the Word. It does have alot to say about the Ghosts ... Read More
Rating: - great read
This is an excellent book. I can't wait to receive the third book in series.
