Druid Of Shannara

In the three hundred years since the death of the Druid Allanon, the evil Shadowen have seized control of the Four Lands. If they are to be saved, the black Elfstone must be retrieved, at whatever cost to life or love....
Quickening, the daughter of the ancient King of the Silver River, heals the dying Walker Boh, and they set out to secure the Elfstone. Their quest takes them into the perilous land beyond, where the Stone King has unleashed monsters to guard his citadel. Brooks is the author of Hook.
