The Gypsy Morph picks up where we left off in The Elves of Cintra, but first we meet a military man who is trapped in a missile silo. This is the catalyst that will begin the end of the old world. We all know from reading Shannara that the old world will end, we just don't know how it gets there. The action picks up with Kirisin Belleruus, having successfully acquired the Loden Elfstone is on the long journey home to his people who believe that he is a murderer. Eventually, he does make it back and does place his people in the Loden. But as always he is captured and Logan Tom, taking the place of Angel, has to find a way to save him. Hawk and the other Ghosts are traveling with hundreds of children to the safe hold that was foretold to him by the King of the Silver River. Meanwhile, they are being stalked by The Klee, a pretty vicious demon that reminds me of a serial killer in the way he acts. As with the story of Moses the caravan of people do eventually make it to their promised land, not without pitfalls and the loss of some people, though. Eventually, everything winds down. The Demons make a last assault. Logan Tom confronts his enemy, Findo Gask. Hawk and the Ghosts confront The Klee. I won't tell you the ending (obviously) but we know already that people do survive in reading Shannara. The ending is a little bittersweet at first but then takes a turn as we return to the missile silo for one last look at the Earth as we know it. I can't wait to see where Terry takes us next in this Genesis series. Rating: *****
