Publisher's Summary:
With 14 national best sellers to his credit, Terry Brooks has become an icon among fantasy fiction lovers. This stunning sequel to Running with the Demon lures listeners even further into the dark place where the battle for our souls rages on.
By night, John Ross, a Knight of the Word, dreams of a nightmarish world governed by merciless demons, and by day he stalks these agents of evil in order to prevent the dreams from materializing. Having failed to prevent an unspeakable act of horror, he now suffers a crisis of faith. Vulnerable, no longer able to trust in the goodness of the Word, he has become a tempting prize for voracious demons. His only hope for survival may be a young girl who wields a powerful magic of her own.
George Wilson's powerful narration so effectively builds tension and plants doubt that you find yourself as easily led astray as the errant knight. You don't know what to believe or whom to trust in this suspenseful novel, where things happen fast and appearances are deceiving.

Can't Seem To Put It Down
After watching the entire first season of The Shannara Chronicles on Netflix, I was deeply curious to find out how the world ended up the way it appeared in the series. Yes, I am probably one of the few who has never read the original Shannara trilogy. So, I began to read these books, beginning with the very first story, his short story called Imaginary Friends. I'm following the suggested chronological order.
Now in the middle of the second book in this Word and Void trilogy, I cannot help but see how what I'm reading seems to 'predict' the current social climate in which we live. It's actually rather frightening to feel as if what I'm reading, what was written back in 1999, is pretty much dead on in describing what I see every single day in the news. Are we headed for the same kind of world seen in The Shannara Chronicles? Probably. If things do not change.
While it is true that Mr. Brooks goes into almost minute detail in his descriptive passages, I do feel that they help to set the scene. However, it is possible to skim over these passages and not miss much in the way of the plot. Those deep descriptions just seem to enrich the story and help to immerse the reader - for me, at least. The characters are just as well thought out as the world that Mr. Brooks has created. It was nice to continue the journey with the characters that I met in Running With The Demon.
Quite impressed with this series so far.

Falls.short of its potential
The thing I loved about the first book was Brooks' ability to turn the events of 3 days (4th of July weekend) into a flurry of relationship building, the love of family, support of friends, the terror of Nest's struggle with magic and tension of colliding forces all bearing down on her. The internal monologues of Nest and Ross were well developed, and getting in to their heads was more important than the plot itself.
With this book being more focused on Ross' loss of faith, the forces now converging on him instead of Nest, the tension and internal crisis that permeated the first book falls flat here. One would think someone willing to travel across the country to save someone that changed their whole life would have a bit more passion.
