Elfstones is by far my favorite Shannara book and one of my favorite books period. The best part of the book to me was actually Stee Jans and the Legion Free Corps, especially the bit near the end where the tattered remnants of the Free Corps hold the top of the Elfitch alone as the rest of the army withdraws to reform around the Gardens of Life. Also, any time I'm playing a video game where you have to name a dog I name it Drifter. Stee Jans and Garth are my two favorite characters out of all of the books.

Only read the first 3 or 4 pages of the thread, but for those of you who were saying the Rift War saga would be good, I agree. However, I also think that the followup Daughter of the Empire trilogy was the far better series and would be hella cool to make. (maybe a followup series if the riftwar was made)
Anyone still watching this? They are up to episode 6.
I like cheesy 90's fantasy so I'm still enjoying it. That Chaos Demon Knight was pretty cool.

Still watching... but there's been a quality drop and that last episode felt more like an episode from legend of the seeker.
Hopefully it picks up again.

I bet its more then 12. the preview they did after the 4th episode showed a lot of shit that we haven't seen, and were already at episode 6.
Also anyone notice that amberle had nothing wrong with her after the torture scene. I assumed that guy was pulling her fingernails out by the way that contraption was set up, but when they rescued her there was nothing wrong with her hand.

Finally got around to watching it and this show is fucking awful. I don't mind the Twilight style terrible romance bullshit, but what the fuck is with all these wild ass departures from the books? And honestly I think Slanter is the worst one. SLANTER IS FROM FUCKING WISHSONG NOT ELFSTONES. This latest episode makes it very clear that they're replacing Amantar with Slanter and instead of having an army of rock trolls show up out of nowhere to help the elves, it will be an army of gnomes. Which doesn't make much difference, except when you changed the Dagda Mor from a demon to a druid corrupted by the Ildatch, you made it pretty clear that you're planning to do Wishsong if Elfstones does ok, so who the fuck are you going to stick in Slanter's spot?
When they fuck up Drifter or just plain leave him out, and I'm pretty sure at this point that they're going to, I'm straight up going to murder every single one of the writers for this fucking abomination.
Oh and I finally figured out why Wil seems so familiar. He's the assassin trying to get in Thea's pants during season 3 of Arrow. Maybe that was already posted earlier in the thread.

I thought he was stretching her fingers like pulling on them. I didn't notice any fingernail stuff.
