Twenty years ago,Terry Brooks turned fantasy fiction on its head with The Sword of Shannara, the first fantasy novel to make the mainstream bestseller list,the New York Times Trade Paperback Bestseller List,where it remained for more than five months; and the first in an unbroken string of thirteen bestselling books.
Now in 'Running with the Demon',Brooks does nothing less than revitalize fantasy fiction again,inventing the complex and powerful new mythos of the Word and the Void,good versus evil still,but played out in the "real world" of our present.On the hottest Fourth of July weekend in decades, two men have come to Hopewell,Illinois, site of a long and bitter steel strike.One is a demon,a dark servant of the Void,who will use the anger and frustration of the community to attain a terrible secret goal.The other is John Ross,a Knight of the Word,a man who,while he sleeps,lives in the hell the world will become if he fails to change its course on waking.Ross has been given the ability to see the future.But does he have the power to change it? At stake is the soul of a fourteen-year-old girl mysteriously linked to both men.And the lives of the people of Hopewell.And the future of the country.
This Fourth of July,while friends and families picnic in Sinnissippi Park and fireworks explode in celebration of freedom and independence,the fate of humanity will be decided.
