Praise for Running With The Demon: The Word and the Void Series: Book One
-
By far the best of Terry Brook s' many wonderful novels: darker, starker, classically written. - John SaulJohn Ross, the tortured, conflicted A Knight of the Word from Terry Brooks's Running with the Demon, finally gets a good night's sleep in the sequel. He buys this moment's peace at the cost of his sacred oath to be a champion of the Word, renouncing that - The story winds lazily through sleepy, wet Seattle like a tour bus, steadily building. Everything eventually converges on the homeless shelter where JPaul Hughes - 'His fans should embrace it as eagerly as they have THE SWORD OF SHANNARA'- Publisher's Weekly - 'as readable as it is thoroughly enjoyable.'
