The Sword of Shannara

''The Sword of Shannara'' is a 1977 epic fantasy novel by Terry Brooks. The first book of the ''Original Shannara Trilogy'', it was followed by ''The Elfstones of Shannara'' and ''The Wishsong of Shannara''. Heavily influenced by J.R.R. Tolkien's ''The Lord of the Rings'', Brooks began writing ''The Sword of Shannara'' in 1967. It took him seven years to complete, as he was writing the novel while attending law school. Ballantine Books used it to launch the company's new subsidiary, Del Rey Books. Its success boosted the commercial expansion of the fantasy genre.
The novel interweaves two major plots into a fictional world called the Four Lands. One follows the protagonist Shea Ohmsford on his quest to obtain the Sword of Shannara and confront the Warlock Lord, the antagonist, with it, while the other shadows Prince Balinor Buckhannah's attempt to oust his insane brother Palance from the throne of Callahorn while the country and its capital, Tyrsis, come under attack from overwhelming armies of the Warlock Lord. Throughout the novel, underlying themes of mundane heroism and nuclear holocaust appear.
Critics have derided the novel for being derivative of J.R.R. Tolkien's ''The Lord of the Rings''. Some have accused Brooks of lifting the entire plot and many of his characters directly from ''Lord of the Rings''; others have regarded the book more favorably and say that new writers often start by copying the style of established writers.
