From New York Times best-selling writer Terry Brooks comes a thrilling standalone book in his renowned Shannara series - the perfect place for new listeners to begin with. After taking up his enchanted sword from the dark sorcerer Arcannen, Paxon Leah is just about the sworn protector of the Druid order. Now a crucial hour is at side, as a favorite High Druid nears the end of her reign and prepares to go from the mortal world to the one beyond. There is little time for Paxon to mourn his friend and benefactor before obligation summons him. For in a distant place of the Four Lands, the magic of the wishsong has been detected. Paxon must go along with a Druid emissary to find its source - and ensure the formidable electricity is not wielded by the incorrect hands. But danger has already been afoot in the town of Portlow. Light touring minstrel Reyn Frosch has the uncanny item, and curse, of the wishsong. And today his coveted abilities have captured the malevolent interest of none other than Arcannen - whose quest for electricity is exceeded only by his thirst for vengeance. The lone survivor of a brutal assault on the notorious pirate city, the sorcerer is set to retaliate from the Federation's elite military officer - and use the damaging electricity of the wishsong as his ultimate tool.
