Start with the Sword of Shanarra (sp?) and proceed from there. He jumped around a lot writing... so you kind of have to be careful what you read first and he has I dunno... 12-15 books in the entire "Elfstone" series

there is a prequel to the shannara series - it's called First King Of Shannara, it obviously precedes Sword of Shannara lol

Start with, The Sword of Shannara. Then The Elfstone of Shannara, then The Wishsong of Shannara. That is the original story. Then you should read the Heritage Series, which starts with The Scions of Shannara. Then read the prequel which is The First King of Shannara. Then jump ahead and read The Journey of the Jerle Shannara series. He's currently working on a new Shannara series which is directly connected(unlike the others) to the Jerle Shannara series.

If you like more comic fantasy, than adventure/ quest things read "Magic Kingdom for Sale/Sold" This is the start of another series, completely unrelated to shannara and is quite good.

Whe i started reading TerryBrook i started with book 3 of heritage series(there are 4 for those of you who didnt know) then 4 then 2 then 1! LOL

then i moved onto his latest stuff,the voyage of the Jerle Shannara.All good but maybe i shoulda read em in some kind of order!!! :)

Also try his Knight of the Word stuff.Set in modern day earth in small american town.pretty gripping and exciting stuff compared to other similar books.

His latest (the one related to Jerle Shannara) is High Druid of Shannara: Jarka Ruus.

Tranquil will be out soon as well, if the publisher ever quits trying to tear it apart that is lol but yes, the proper order to read the Shannara series is as follows. Sword of Shannara, Elf Stones of Shannara, Wishsong of Shannara, Scions of Shannara, Druid of Shannara, The elf Queen of Shannara, Talsimans of Shannara, First King of Shannara, Isle Witch book 1 of the Jerle Shannara, Antrax Book 2 of the Jerle Shannara, Morgwar Book 3 of the Jerle Shannara, Jarka Ruus book1 of the High Druid of Shannara, and Tranquil book 2 of the High Druid of Shannara. Note that book two of the High Druid of Shannara isnt out yet but that is the order, according to Mr. Brooks himself that the Shannara series should be read in.
