Brin Ohmsford

Brin Ohmsford of Shady Vale possess the Wishsong, the only hope of defeating the evils of the dark magic that has survived for many generations now trapped in a book of spells called...The Ildatch

I loved this book. It reminds of the Lord of The Rings series where one person is "the chosen one" who must carry the burden of saving the lands while traveling under the guidance of friends who consist of an elf, dwarf, Prince/lost king, and a mystic (either wizard or druid etc). The Wishsong of Shannara by Terry Brooks is the third in the Shannara series. The first book, the Sword of Shannara is awsome too...I didn't know I had read the third one first and had to buy the first two in order to catch up...currently reading the second, The Elfstones of Shannara
