I really liked this book. I had watched the movies, and then became interested in reading the books. I loved how this one flowed, unwrapping slowly like a morning glory in the early dawn. Beautiful and full of magic. It builds for an epic climax, showing beloved characters new and old. It continues ...
I've read this before, I think twice before, but both times were many years ago. The part I remembered best was about the Ents, and I still liked them the best. I'd forgotten that the book is not really self-contained. It ends in a place requiring additional explication, which of course, happens in ...
Read my full review here.Tolkien uses his talent to give readers beautiful and extremely detailed descriptions of the setting, characters, and actions. Tolkien knows how to weave subtle foreshadowing into the story so that readers can pick up hints and clues and try to guess what significance they w...
First thing--The Lord of the Rings was conceived as one novel and The Two Towers is the middle portion. These aren't self-contained books, so if you haven't read The Fellowship of the Ring first you're going to be lost--and if you don't have The Return of the King by your side when you're finished y...
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome another member to the Lord of The Rings fandom! :D I LOVED this book. Even though I think it was less adventurous than the first one but I liked it better and now I've become a certified fan. Greatest Epic Fantasy of our time? I have no doubt about that.
What can i possibly say in a review of one of the world's most read books? I enjoyed it, i found it a little hard going in places, but finished it. Read first years ago, and then again after seeing the film. After second read, I found bits that i had missed first time round, and that made some parts...
After working on this for a years time, I'm finally done with it. It was amazing, but it's so heavy and slow-paced that I sometimes want to jump from a building instead of finishing it. I don't even remember the start. But it's finished. I'm done. Woo.
Tolkien in his preface to LOR #1 says that this is NOT a trilogy, but a single book broken into several volumes. I certainly agree. Unlike other series books, he wastes no time at all at the beginning of LOR #2 with backstory or catch-up or reminding the reader of where he had left off. I can see...
The Lord of The Rings ( The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King ) by : J.R.R. Tolkien The Lord of the Rings trilogy is a genuine masterpiece. The best fantasy epic of all time There were times when I did not want to sleep because I wanted to finish just one more ...
I'm not a big fan of fantasy but... this book is not about fantasy is it? ;) I enjoy reading about mystic creatures - the way it has been written, I felt it's all real. The whole story gives you a possibility to enter a world where everything and nothing is possible. All characters re so real, ther...
