erry is always working on a new writing project. He writes every morning, and during those moments he is not writing, he has one foot in the story. It is this work ethic that helps him publish a book every year. He finishes a new book at the same time as the last one is being released, so he is always one book ahead of what the readers have in their hands.
The website receives many questions about what he is publishing next, so this part of the website is devoted to the future—not only concerning the next book but what Terry's planning on doing in several years.
Everything listed on this page is tentative but it is also what Terry has in mind at this moment:
2008
2009
- A New Landover Novel (September)
- The World of Shannara - Revised & Updated (September)
2010
- Book One of a Genesis of Shannara Duology (September)
- High Druid of Shannara Omnibus (September)
2011
- Book Two of a Genesis of Shannara Duology (September)
- The Word & the Void Omnibus (September)
2012
- Book One of a Post-Straken Shannara Trilogy (September)
2013
- Book Two of a Post-Straken Shannara Trilogy (September)
2014
- Book Three of a Post-Straken Shannara Trilogy (September)
There you have it - from the man himself.
The newest book published by Terry is The Gypsy Morph, Book Three of Genesis of Shannara. It was released on August 26, 2008 in the United States and a week later in the UK.
Terry has just finished writing a new Landover novel, which will be published in 2009. Then he tentatively plans to write a Genesis of Shannara duology and then a new Shannara trilogy to take place after the events of Straken—or maybe even an entirely new series!
