Book ID/图书代码： 01240011B49922
English Summary/英文概要： In this first book of a brand-new trilogy in the New York Times bestselling Shannara universe, the Four Lands hang in the balance between science and magic, as subversive elements take up arms against the Druid Council! 2012 marks the 35th anniversary of the Shannara phenomenon. With this new trilogy, Terry Brooks returns to the hugely popular era of the High Druid of Shannara trilogy, which concluded in 2005 with the publication of Straken. It is a time of struggle in the Four Lands. Humans and their allies have developed dangerous weapons using the forbiddensecrets of science that long ago destroyed the world. Then a clue to four sets of precious Elfstones is discovered. Their magic has been missing for thousands of years. If it can be regained, the balance of power may shift once again. If not... an armageddon threatens.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 纽约时报畅销莎娜拉系列此次又有了全新的三部曲，此乃第一本，依然在科学与魔法之间寻求平衡，颠覆的因素和德鲁伊政务会奋斗。 2012年是莎娜拉现象的35周年纪念。在这部新作中，作者再次回到了2005年用第三集 STRAKEN发表完的《莎娜拉的德鲁依》（the High Druid of Shannara）轰动一时的时代。在第四空间，这是奋斗的时代。人类和其友军运用被禁止的秘方发展出了危险的武器，这种武器曾经毁灭极整个古代世界。然后，4对珍贵的精灵石现身了。他们失去魔力已有上千年，如果能够重获之，也许能量可以再度转换。但万一失败了，兴许世界末日随时会降临。(XJJ & CK)

Praise for WARDS OF FAERIE:
"Suitably rousing and occasionally touchingly sentimental." --Publishers Weekly
"Fans will not be disappointed, for while this first installment primarily serves to introduce the main plot and players, it doesn’t skimp on the action scenes, which crackle as always, including a climactic confrontation between airships and magic...An auspicious beginning to Brooks’ latest Shannara tale." --Kirkus
