Go on Quest 4. More Characters introduced. 5. Big war approaches 6. Big war happens 7. Big war is won because of Shannarah descendant. Rinse, Lather, and Repeat

I like the trilogies, you can pretty much count on the first book being all about history lessons and digging up questors, the second is the embarking on and dangers of the quest, and the third the exciting climax with the unforseen twist. I like it, it just means to me that it's a book I'll like at the end because I'm used to the storyline. Certain ones are higher in my favorites list than others though. Which are your faves? Even though they're predictable? I love Elfstones and Druid.
