The Orbital Sword

Once again, David, Scott, and Jim gather in the reading room aboard the Orbital Sword to bring you their latest episode as they look closely at Terry Brooks’ Armageddon’s Children, the first of the Genesis of Shannara trilogy. Is it fantasy or is it Sci-Fi? This one seems to have elements of both and is an entertaining story. Just a note here, David recommends that if you are new to the Shannara series, make sure you read them in order or you may find yourself dropped into the middle of a saga without enough background to really understand what is taking place.

As Always, your feedback is always welcome and we look forward to hearing from you at [email protected].
