Ben Holiday, High Lord of the magic kingdom of Landover, and his wife Willow have sent their 15-year-old daughter Mistaya to our world to attend a prestigious girls' boarding school. Mistaya--Misty to her friends--is not pleased with the arrangement. She is forbidden to use her magic for any reason, can't understand why other girls her own age don't revere the natural world, and is too clever for her own good in coming up with activities definitely not contained in the private school charter. It's only a matter of time before the authorities have to act--and Misty is suspended until she can prove she'll follow the rules.Misty is perfectly pleased to be sent home to her beloved Landover. She wants nothing more than to continue her studies with the wizard Questor Thews and Abernathy, the court scribe. But Ben Holiday is furious that his daughter has been kicked out of school. To show her the importance of dedication to a task, he sends her to Libiris, the kingdom's long-abandoned royal library. Misty runs away rather than take on the assignment, but eventually ends up at Libiris nonetheless, there to uncover a magical plot that could spell the end of all Landover.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally! Landover Returns!
Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2009

After fifteen years, Terry Brooks has finally returned to Landover, and after reading this great book, it was definitely worth the wait.

Mistaya Holiday, fifteen-year-old daughter of High Lord Ben Holiday, has been sent to Carrington school for girls to learn more about Ben's world. However, her experience there is less than pleasant and soon, she returns to Landover. Ben, angry and disappointed with his daughter, has suggested that she go to work restoring Libiris, Landover's library. Immediately mortified at the prospect of cleaning up the neglected library, Mistaya decides to seek refuge with the her grandfather, the River Master. To make matters even worse for Mistaya, she has discovered that Lord Laphroig, lord of Rhyndweir, has the intention of marrying her.

Upon reaching her grandfather, she finds out that he doesn't intend to offer her sanctuary from her parents. Instead, he sends her on her way. Disheartened, Mistaya decides to go to the last place her parents would think to look for her: Libiris. Once there, Mistaya meets Thom, a young boy indentured to His Eminance; the library's director. Thom's task includes cataloging and organizing the library's books along with the help of some other less-than-desirable creatures. Almost immediately, however, Mistaya senses a presence about Libiris and soon she discovers that these is much more to this old library than books; for Libiris has a magic all its own, and there are dark forces at work within her. Will Mistaya be able to discover the secret of Libiris before its too late and will she be forced to marry the strange Lord Laphroig?

I've been a fan of Terry Brooks for many years and I've read all of his books. I was delighted when I learned that he was writing a new Landover novel, and he didn't disappoint. This book is loaded with action and suspense, and the story keeps building throughout. I was also pleased that it appears that Brooks has left the door open for yet another Landover novel.

I give this fine book my highest recommendation. After reading it, you'll discover that it was worth waiting for.

4.0 out of 5 stars A headstrong princess gets comeuppence
Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2010

Princess Mistaya gets kicked out of the earth school her parents chose for her and returns home. She battles her father over her future then runs away from his decisions about it, thinking she knows best. Then things get interesting. An evil lord wants to marry her, her grandfather sides with her father about her future and she takes refuge in the place her father wanted to put her. Here a forgotten wizard takes over and Mistaya tries to fight him. Up until this point Brooks has done a good job in presenting Mistaya's side, now he lets the wizard Crabit play as the all knowing, all scheming evil doer, brings in the evil lord suitor and a power fight develops and we get a development involving Nightshade which seems to presage future action. The early parts of book were written at a high level profiling of Mistaya but the later part is much more juvenile. Brooks seems to involve Edgewood Dirk and Haltwhistle both to lenthen the story and to get Mistaya out of a jam, also Strabo and her father's aids, Questor Thews and Abernathy for the same reason, not let Mistaya do it as he had done earlier. Still I thought it was a good read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brooks at his best... which is the norm for him
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2011

I have been a fan of Terry Brooks since my high school days. This book is a great read, and a beautiful addition to any library. If you are like me, once you have read a book you tend to never read it again. This is not the case with my Terry Brooks collection. I will re-read them in a few years after I have forgotten all the details (easy to do if your an avid reader like me and get the details all mixed up in other novels). I normally do not buy hardcover books as I get rid of novels after I have read them. Not so with Brooks. I buy them outright before ever reading and give them an honored place in my library. I can always count on an extraordinary story and entertaining capacity of the highest level. This is a continuation from the MAGIC KINGDOM FOR SALE SOLD series. I love how Brooks can incorporate past characters into recent stories.

Wie immer gelingt es Terry Pratchett Bilder mir Worten zu malen, er lässt den Leser tief in die Geschichte eintauchen . Seine Sprache ( in Englisch gelesen) fesselt den Leser, man kann gar nicht aufhören, da man wissen will wie es den Protagonisten weiter ergeht, spannend bis zum Schluss

I love Terry Brooks. This series is really quite funny. I think it is appropriate for teens as well since there is no sex or inappropriate stuff in there. This book is the 6th book in the series. It isn't absolutely necessary to read the others first since there are explanatory passages to keep things understable. So if you have to skip one because you don't have it, that is ok. But it is best to read them in order. Loved this series so much. Very light hearted. Full of action and adventure. Great for males or females.
