Terry Brooks Video Interview


Terry visited the San Diego Comic Con and had a multitude of fans waiting for him to sign. A signing that was slotted to take one hour spread into just over two hours. I was really surprised at how many fans said the only reason they bought a Comic Con ticket was to see Terry.

Other than the autographing session, Terry also took part on a panel and and interview conducted by yours truly. Terry talked about his return to Landover and dropped a few hints about what Book #4 of Genesis will be about.

The Gypsy Morph Paperback Released

The Gypsy Morph, Book Three in the Genesis of Shannara series, has been released in mass market paperback and should be in fine bookstores everywhere!

On a related note, Terry is about a week from finishing Book #4 in the Genesis of Shannara series, which will be published in 2010. It takes place several hundred years after the events of The Gypsy Morph and has all new characters. I will be posting a video on Friday of Terry talking about the next Genesis book, where he reveals a few tidbits about what the story is about. He plans on jumping right into Book #5 in Genesis sometime in September.

But for now, if you haven't finished reading the first three-book storyarc in Genesis of Shannara, go out and buy Armageddon's Children, The Elves of Cintra and The Gypsy Morph, all in paperback now!

Genesis of Shannara #4

As the publication date for A Princess of Landover quickly approaches, it is also the time where Terry nears close to finishing the next book.

This is just a quick update. Terry is only three chapters shy of finishing Book #4 in the Genesis of Shannara series. It is set several hundred years after the events of The Gypsy Morph and it is the first half of a two-book tale that tells the story of civilization's survivors. He is really happy with this first book of the duology.

When Terry finishes Book #4, he will then immediately begin writing Book #5 and hopes to have both done and fully edited by next summer. Book #4 will be released August 2010. No word yet when Book #5 will be released.
