Shannara Pushed Back

The World of Shannara, the guide of all things Shannara written by Teresa Patterson and approved of by Terry, has been pushed back to a Fall 2009 release. In Fall 2009, you can expect The World of Shannara and Landover #6 to be released right around the same day if not the same day.

Although this might be disconcerting to the fans who were looking forward to this revised and updated The World of Shannara, this will allow Terry and Del Rey to produce an even finer version of it.

The World of Shannara Cover

Several years ago, Terry oversaw the completion of The World of Shannara, a fairly comprehensive guide to the Shannara world. Since that time Terry has written nine new novels that needed to be incorporated into the guide.

Del Rey this fall will be releasing an updated edition of The World of Shannara. It will have new paintings by artist Rob Alexander and new text by Teresa Patterson. Teresa has now included sections about Word/Void, Voyage, High Druid, and Genesis. The book will be released near the same time as The Gypsy Morph, this August 26th.

Here is the cover:

The World of Shannara

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.

That changes in September 2008. For several years, Terry and Del Rey have had plans to revise and update The World of Shannara, adding the High Druid of Shannara series and growing the Old World aspect seen in the new Genesis of Shannara series. It will be published as a new hardcover with a new cover for its dust jacket, and it will have about 48 pages more content than the one released in 2001. It will have new art, including Logan Tom, Angel, Kirisin, and Simralin. It will also connect and link the Word/Void series.

When more information is released about this, it will be posted here on the website! In the meantime, get ready for September 2008!
