Best-selling fantasy author Terry Brooks talks about The Last Druid, ending The Shannara Cycle and starting a new tale in a new world.

Terry talks about writing longevity and knowing when to stop writing, keeping storytelling fresh and exciting, about working with Lester Del Rey at the beginning of his career, about embracing the growth and process of writing, the successes and troubles of the television adaptation, and so much more.

The first book in his new series, Child of Light, will be out in June 2021
