Morgawr by Terry Brooks. I'm about 2/3rds of the way through. Lots more action in this one than in the previous two books. The main characters keep getting themselves in more and more difficult situations. I'm getting a bit tired of chapters ending with "everything went black." Rather lacking in imagination there, Mr Brooks!
Some of the main characters have died but those still in action keep making the most miraculous escapes. I find myself losing patience with this at times. I also find myself thinking that if they can do that now why didn't they do it earlier? I think it's a quite lazily written book. Shannara by numbers. Disappointing.
