Hi Shannara Fans,
I'll keep this brief as it is a busy Monday.
Last Friday, I received five pallets of The Druid of Shannara Anniversary Editions. These match up with The Scions of Shannara and Indomitable books that Terry and I published a few years ago. And even as I type this, our artist for The Elf Queen of Shannara Anniversary Edition is already hard at work. I'll share who that artist is soon, I promise.
If you haven't ordered your matching number or regular hardcover editions for The Druid of Shannara, now is an excellent time. You can find the books/merch items on The Signed Page HERE.
My own books are also up for sale right now. In case you want to save on shipping!
One more item to share. Author Jeff Wheeler -- who is a huge Terry Brooks fan -- has been writing for over 10 years. He just launched his first Kickstarter campaign for his Muirwood series. Definitely CLICK HERE and see what he's up to.
Your WebDruid,
Shawn

Hi Everyone,
I'm gearing up for sending The Druid of Shannara to the printer tomorrow! Woo! Also, do you remember that SHANNARA RETROSPECTIVE and HONORARY DRUID COIN from Shannara Con? I'll be putting a few of those up on The Signed Page soon, FYI, because I can't handle them taking up space any longer in my warehouse.
In other news, Terry had a great time at Comicpalooza in Houston, TX this last weekend. He met an author named Rose Garcia there and they were on several panels together. Rose has a Kickstarter going right now for her Fae novels. I thought I'd share that link in case you have any interest in looking over her work and seeing if it is for you:

Hi Shannara Backers,
A quick update here. I am preparing the final files for The Druid of Shannara Special Editions. These will be sent to the printer early next week. I can't wait to see this book because the Lixin Yin art is SO gorgeous!
That said, many of you haven't ordered your merchandise (coins, metal bookmark etc.), regular hardcover of The Druid of Shannara, or your matching number, letter, or even rare copy of The Druid of Shannara. These are available right now on The Signed Page website HERE. If you can't find what you are looking for, let me know and I can point you in the right direction.
Definitely order ASAP. Because early next week, when I put in my order for these items, I'm going off of the numbers that have been pre-ordered. I don't want you missing out on anything that you want but has sold out.
Thank you!
Shawn

What is The King-Killing Queen?
The King-Killing Queen is a brand-new high-fantasy novel from me, Shawn Speakman(The Annwn Cycle) that combines the high-stakes of Game of Thrones with the intrigue of Succession.
In The King-Killing Queen, a young woman named Sylvie Raventress is shockingly named heir to the throne after the High King passes, and she finds herself at the center of a conspiracy orchestrated by her siblings that threatens to both end her reign and ignite a war between the worlds of Man and Fae.
What is The Briar-Sword Monk?
The Briar-Sword Monk is a prequel graphic novel about Emmer, the warrior monk who played a pivotal role in the conflict between Man and Fae. His fabled sword Bruyere is the companion weapon to Lumiere, the blade which Sylvie will come to wield hundreds of years later.
Adapted from my original short story, The Briar-Sword Monk is drawn by Patrick Rothfuss’ illustrator Nate Taylor and serves as the perfect companion book for those looking for a deeper dive into the world of The King-Killing Queen.
We hope you’ll join the party and back THE KING-KILLING QUEEN! Thanks to everyone in advance for your support!
