I think I make better use of language and imagery than when I started out

Terry Brooks is a renowned fantasy author known for his epic Shannara series, which has captivated readers for decades with its rich world-building, complex characters, and gripping storytelling. Over the course of his career, Brooks has honed his craft and developed a unique voice that sets him apart from other authors in the genre. One aspect of his writing that has noticeably improved over the years is his use of language and imagery.

When Brooks first started out as a writer, his prose was more straightforward and utilitarian. While his storytelling was always strong, his descriptions lacked the depth and nuance that would later become a hallmark of his work. As he gained more experience and confidence as a writer, Brooks began to experiment with language and imagery, using vivid descriptions and evocative language to bring his fantastical worlds to life.
