A Knight of the Word begins with John Ross quiting his destiny of being a Knight. But he is still plagued by dreams of an unpeakably horrifying future (a future that may come true, just read the Shannara books). We jump back to Hopewell, Illinois and back to Nest Freemark. She is now older, in college and waiting for her shot at the Olympics as a runner. She gets word from a strange spirit Ariel that John Ross is in danger. So she travels to Seattle, Washington to help him. Except he doesn't want help. He now works for a homeless shelter and outreach program and is in love. But his new dreams show him killing the saintly boss that he works for at the outreach program. But Nest knows a demon can not be to far behind. So she uses her own Word magic to smoke out the demon. The demon's identity and the real conflicts culminate in an explosive ending. An ending that will change both protagonists lives for good.
