The post-apocalyptic crossover trilogy connecting the Word & Void prequels to the fantasy world of Shannara.
Start with The Sword of Shannara.
Publication Order: The Shannara universe is broken down into distinct sub-series. While publication order is safe, many fans prefer to read the entire saga in chronological universe order.
Chronological Order: The chronological timeline begins with The Word and the Void trilogy (set in our modern world), leading into The Genesis of Shannara and eventually the classic The Sword of Shannara.
