Terry is attending the 2011 DragonCon in Atlanta, GA!
It has been a number of years since he’s been back to the South, and fans are already gearing up for his appearance at one of the largest sci-fi/fantasy conventions in the world. But knowing where he’ll be at what time is fairly important so you don’t miss out!

This information will also be posted on the 2011 DragonCon website and be offered in program guides at the convention.
A note: The autographings last an hour per the rules of DragonCon. Definitely get in line early. While Terry loves signing for his fans and has a policy of signing until the last fan is happy, the convention will stop a signing at that one-hour mark and shoo fans—and author—from the room if the table is needed for the next author/celebrity.
That means plan accordingly!

Dragon Con prices may be somewhat but it’s well worth it! Trust me! This is my 8th year. Best year yet.
I am very excited to see that Mr. Brooks will be at Dragon*Con this year. My first novel is being released at Dragon*Con and Terry Brooks is a very big inspiration to my writing. I hope I have the opportunity to meet him and thank him personally.

Just wanted to say that I picked up the Sword of Shanara in an airport bookstore as I was leaving to start a new life in New York. I have been addicted to your writing ever since …. Just want to say thank you for bringing a little science fantasy to my otherwise dull and mortal life,

I want to get Mr. Brooks’ autograph for my daughter. Will there be books there to buy for that or should I bring my own?
There are often booksellers and book dealers at Dragon Con. But they can only bring so many books and could sell out. I’d suggest bringing your own if you want to ensure a signature.
I’m new to the DragonCon, and I am make making the drive from Jacksonville, FL, so I need to know if bringing any extra money is needed for autographs. Especially if I’m planning on bringing my entire collection.
No, Terry does not charge for autographs.
Terrific. Thanks Shawn.
GEE I don’t have a job right now but I do have 30 spare dollers. Should I go to Dragon con or buy the new book ….. Really wish you would do a sining some where I can aford but I will still enjoy the new book. THANKS YOU grately for many years of fantastic books !!
