Book Three Title
From the moment Terry Brooks fans finished reading The Elves of Cintra, the website has received numerous emails asking what the title of Book Three would be in the Genesis of Shannara series. The original title Terry had come up with was too long, which led Terry and Del Rey to find a new title over the course of the last several months. That hunt is over—at least for the moment.
The third book in the Genesis of Shannara series is tentatively titled: The Gypsy Morph
As some of you remember, this was one of the titles bandied about for the book that would eventually be titled Armageddon's Children. But The Gypsy Morph fits much better for this third book than the first one, and it will be published in late August 2008. The Gypsy Morph is longer than the two previous books and will have 410+ pages. It also wraps up all storylines from the first two books.
The title could still change. But right now this is the title. A first glimpse of The Gypsy Morph will comes in March when Dark Wraith of Shannara is released.
A small note of trivia: The cover of The Gypsy Morph will be the first time the connection between Word/Void and Shannara will be made obvious (the "gypsy morph" is from Angel Fire East and the word Shannara will be beneath it).

In 2001, Del Rey Books released a Shannara compendium titled The World of Shannara. It was a 206 page guide to Shannara, with painted illustrations and additional informations not found in the books. It incorporated information from the Old World through to the formation of the Druids and all the way up through The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara. It sold out rather quickly and has since been out of print.
