•¤• Background •¤• Terry Brooks, most famous for the high-fantasy Shannara series, turned his hand to a more ‘real world’ style – well, modern USA-set, but with demons and woodland creatures abound.

But the demons have not forgotten him, and Nest Freemark is sent to warn him and to try to get him to take his responsibilities on again, before it is too late. As in the first book, there is a lot of unnecessary blabbing at the end as they explain every plot point the reader might not have got. (Not as much, though) ...
