5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best and darkest entries in the Shannara series, 20 Sep 2001
Having read all the shannara books I have to say that this is one of the darkest books of all the series. This could be due to the fact that Terry Brooks has effectively managed to merge fantasy with the technology that the world is developing today. As a result you are able to identify to a greater extent what the characters are facing.The book also offers good development of the characters, particulaly between Bek and Truls Rohk, and ends with a great cliffhanger.Antrax has a touch of the Matrix in it supplimented by enough of the usual Shannara magic to keep you totally entranced.A must.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absorbing, 20 Nov 2003
By Kurt A. Johnson (Marseilles, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
In this sequel to his wonderful Ilse Witch, author Terry Brooks continues the adventures of the crew of the Jerle Shannara. With the party sundered, each member must fend for him or herself. The seemingly all-powerful opponent that they face is given a name: Antrax. A creation of the Old World, it exists everywhere and nowhere at all; how can Walker defeat it? Bek confronts his sister, but she has long been wrapped in lies for so long, how can he reach her?

This book is even better than the first book of the series. Where that one laid the groundwork, this one built on it. The story is gripping, screaming along to the final page. Getting more and more enthralling with each page, it left me truly frustrated that I have to wait another year for the next chapter!

This is a great book, absorbing, with a fascinating storyline. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

5.0 out of 5 stars His best work yet, 23 Aug 2002
Terry Brooks has done it again. In fact, he's bettered himself again!

Antrax (which I only finished reading about half an hour ago) has taken the world of Shannara and has pit it against a completely new adversary. The meld of futurism and fantasy is perfectly pitched, and it had me on the edge of my seat several times!

I have religiously read every single one of the Shannara series in order, and this is most likely the best. It draws upon magic that we already know about (the Wishsong, the Sword of Leah, and the Druid Magic) and blends it with some new, interesting people and then drops the whole lot into a completely unfamiliar environment.

I've already pre-ordered the next book, but I'm going to be waiting on my doorstep for it to be delivered!
