Does the Shannara series by Terry Brooks get better after The Sword of Shannara?
I’ve read the Sword of Shannara and like most people, I found it difficult to get past the fact that it was so much like the Lord of the Rings story. I’m willing to give the series the benefit of the doubt though, based on any answers I recieve here.
I have read his books again and again. Yes, it’s very much like the rings series, but then you can only do so much to avoid similarities when dealing with elves, gnomes, dwarves, and other mythical characters. The books do take on a similar flavor, but Brooks also begins to break away from that mold later on. I think that you should try the next one and see what you think. His later series also have a similar flair, but break further yet away from the rings mold. You might try those. They follow the Shannara series, but can stand alone. They start with Isle With, I believe. I am a huge Tolkien fan, and though it seems so similar as to almost be plagiarism, I still love the books. Give it a shot, I don’t think that you will be disappointed.

Out of Time [Blu-ray] + DVD Combo $6.99 Partly inspired by 1948’s The Big Clock and its nominal 1987 remake No Way Out, the Denzel Washington thriller Out of Time is quite enjoyable if you ignore its implausible plotting. Like those earlier films, this reunion of Washington and his Devil in a Blue Dress director Carl Franklin is about a man–in this case the police chief (Washington) of sleepy Banyan Key, Florida–who falls into a trap … |

Star Trek Deep Space Nine – The Complete Second Season $44.73 Only Kira Nerys would risk going to war over an earring.

It’s the first episode in a complex trilogy involving the fate of the tenuous Bajoran Provisional Government, an extremist group called the Circle, and a lege… |

Mulan II $4.47 Disney management has often been accused of sacrificing the long-term quality of its animated features for the short-term pay-off of direct-to-video sequels to its middling modern successes. But as this soundtrack-sequel to the studio’s 1998 quasi-feminist Chinese folk-tale proves, the music of such ventures can often compare favorably with that of the original. This new collection’s buoyant “(I W… |

King Kong: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack $7.97 James Newton Howard reportedly got the King Kong gig as a last-minute replacement for Howard Shore (who of course had worked on King Kong director Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings series). The good news is that Howard still managed to write an honorable score; the bad news is that it’s no more than honorable. For some, the biggest disappointment may be that Howard didn’t find more inspiration in … |
