Season Three of The Shannara Chronicles? Yes please.

Some of you may be familiar with the show, some of you may not. Season one aired last year on MTV as a new fantasy series based loosely around the 41 book series by Terry Brooks. Season one started off with a bang, luring us into a lush, post-apocalyptic San Francisco/surrounding California area? in a world destroyed by nuclear war that has given rise to several variations of 'races' originating from human; elves, gnomes, dwarves, trolls and humans through there appears to be a plethora more in the actual book series more.

- Note to self: pick up the nearest copy of the first book and work on getting caught up.

That being said, season two was on rockier ground with a move from MTV to Spike. Spike apparently seemed to have the best of intentions with the series and it appeared that Terry was still involved in the creative process; but, with only ten episodes available now on Netflix, it makes me curious, will there be a season three? I certainly hope so. The ending left me with more questions than answers and I'm certainly curious to see the relationships develop between Eretria and Lyria as well as Wil and Mareth. So many options and let's not even dive into the subject of the cliffhanger ending - for those of you who haven't seen this series, get to it!

In other news, I'm still waiting to hear about my transfer requests. Let's hope something turns up soon and I can get out of Michigan! *crosses my fingers and hopes for the best*

  1. Ah, I'm going to be so sad if they don't renew somewhere for Season 3. :( I got really into the first season and I loved the second one too, but I was expecting to have more than just the 10 episodes. I hate when they do crap like this, it's not fair for those of us who actually got invested into the series.

    I knew there were lots of books in the series, but I didn't know there were 41! Wow, that is alot of ground to cover, lol. We found 2 of the books from The Sword of Shannara trilogy at Barnes & Noble a few months ago. I haven't been back to check on more though recently.

    If you can get out of Michigan, where are you looking to go? Or is it just wherever they have a transfer available? Either way -crosses fingers for you also!- =]

    1. Yeah, I didn't know there were 41 books either! :o I'm going to start trying to find/reading them from the library when I have a chance.

      I'm aiming for Florida or somewhere that has openings for transfers! We'll see how it goes though and thanks!
