The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara: Anthrax Book Two: Antrax Across fathomless seas, beyond the far horizon, the voyagers aboard the Jerle Shannara face the deadliest and darkest challenge of their lives
In Ilse Witch, Terry Brooks started a new Shannara series – already, his most successful. Now in Antrax, as the crew aboard the airship Jerle Shannara is attacked by evil forces, the druid’s protégé, Bek Rowe, and his companions are pursued by the mysterious Ilse Witch. Meanwhile, Walker is alone, caught in a dark maze beneath the ruined city of Castledown, stalked by a hungry, unseen enemy. For there is something; alive in Castledown. Something not human, and old beyond reckoning. It covets the magic of Druids, elves - and even the Ilse Witch. It is Antrax: a spirit that commands ancient technologies and mechanical monsters, feeds off enchantment and traps the souls of men.
With the Jerle Shannara under siege, the Ilse Witch finds herself face to face with Bek, a boy who claims to be the brother she last saw as an infant - now a young man, who carries the Sword of Shannara and wields the magic of the wishsong...
Return to the world of the Four Lands, where creatures drift up from the earth like mist, a hypnotic song can kill, a sword can cut through a veil of lies - and one man, the true heir of an ancient magic, must choose between betrayal and redemption.

the creature will be an invaluable weapon against the Void. But the 7Void also knows its value, and will not rest until it has been corrupted - or destroyed.
Desperate, Ross returns to the home town of Nest Freemark, a young woman with magical abilities of her own. And there they prepare to face an ancient evil beyond anything they have ever encountered.
