Terry Brooks is practically fantasy royalty, and we're honored to be graced with his visit for the second time! Terry Brooks published his first novel, The Sword of Shannara, in 1977. It was a New York Times bestseller for more than six months. He has published twenty-five New York Times bestsellers since.

For the first time in his career, Terry will be publishing a book every six months from the start to end of this series: here is the epic conclusion in a brand-new fantasy trilogy in the New York Times bestselling Shannara universe! Witch Wraith

Long ago, many dangerous creatures were locked behind a magical barrier, bringing peace and prosperity to the land. But now those barriers are eroding, and generations of embittered prisoners are about to escape. War seems inevitable...unless a few brave souls can stem the tide. Now, our heroes must muster the last ounces of their courage as events unfold fast and furiously. From riveting start to cliffhanger ending, this is an epic for the ages!

This event will be offsite because our moving date is still uncertain (visit our new and larger space at 45 South Main Street in August!), and we want Mr. Brooks’s many fans to enjoy meeting him and to hear him read in absolute comfort. We have to charge a small ticket price to pay for the venue. A $5 ticket can be yours automatically if you preorder Terry Brooks’s new book, Witch Wraith, below, or you can buy a $5 ticket separately. Your ticket can be used as a $5 coupon towards any purchase at the event or at Gibson's Bookstore. (GibsonsB)… (more)
