Sword of Shannara

A coworker recommended this one, "Sword of Shannara" by Terry Brooks. It wasn't bad, but it is clearly a LOTR rip off. Shea is told by mysterious Druid Allanon that he is the last of the house of Shannara, and as such is the only one who can wield the sword to kill the coming Dark Lord. Shea and his adopted brother Flick set off to get the sword, gathering some friends along the way to help. Like I said, it wasn't bad, but I don't have any interest in finishing the rest of the books, either.
