Summary: Wonderful
Review: I love this book! The reason I started reading it was that I heard that Led Zeppelin (my favorite band) got some of their lyrics from these books. Everytime I came across something that reminded me of "Stairway to Heaven" or "The Battle of Evermore," I couldn't put the book down! I reccomend this book to only avid readers who can stick it out till the end.

Summary: Truly a fantastic read!
Review: This is a great book. But i can understand that some people find it boring. I heard about it and decided to read it in 6th grade. It was slow and after three chapters of dragging myself through it, i returned it wondering what was so great about it. a year later, i was brousing for a book to read when it caught my eye. I was incredibly bored so I decided to give it another try. Afterall, fantasy is my favorite genre. From then on i was caught. I read the book three times and loved ALL the characters, (even the EVIL Sauron, which,i admit, is odd). The middle earth is so believable that for days after i expected to find orcs lurking about at night. This is a fantastic trilogy and a fantastic book you HAVE to read.

Summary: Great Book
Review: I usually don't finish books that I start reading because I have so little time to read and I end up losing interest, but with Fellowship of the Ring I never lost interest and I spent every free moment reading it. Even if I only had time to read one page I would pick it up and read what I could get. I have just gotten started on The Two Towers and it is addictive also.

Summary: The Fellowship of the Ring
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. It had a lot of the same charecters and some new ones the main charecter was Frodo. They treavled far to destroy the ring Biblo found in the HOBBIT. To read this book I strongly suggest to read the Hobbit first. This book was very good and carried on well from the HOBBIT, but really dragged on in details. The Hobbit had a lot more action in it but the Fellowship of the Ring is explained better. I still liked the Fellowship of the Ring; it is a good book and is worth reading.

Summary: The Fellowship of the Ring (Lord of the Rings Part One)

Summary: The greatest fantasy book ever written
Review: This book will grab onto you and never let go. You are forced to read the other two books in the Lord of the Rings series after this one leaves you hanging. Tolkien is a genius.

Summary: Only surpassed by "The Hobbit"
Review: This is one of the greates books I have ever read. J.R.R. Tolkien sets all of the standards for fantasy writers; past, present, and furture. I think it is a great idea for a movie to be created. They say that it is going to cost around 130 million dollars, which is alot money, but they are going to come the closest to matching "Star Wars" since "Titanic." I love the different characters and races that are presented, and for the most part how they are going to be casted. I reccomend to everbody in the world reading "The Fellowship of the Ring" because it one of the few books that you can totally get into and like. I would also like to that I think my British Literature teacher should read it especially because he won't be bored with it if he gives it a chance.

Summary: Excellence
Review: One word can describe the writing of Tolkien: excellence. Tolkien has mastered the arts of story telling, language, and writing. Nothing can be said about this book that is not of a positive nature. Tolkien has written a believable story that gives his readers an adventure too incredible for the common man. In some ways, Tolkien gives readers something for which to strive. His characters put themselves at risk to protect the freedom of the land. The characters of the book are what we all desire to be, heroes. These characters serve a higher purpose than self. People long to be heroes and guardians of justice. This book gives readers a sense of satisfaction that can only be felt in the imagination. The Fellowship of the Ring and the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy is one of the greatest fictional tales ever told. I plan to read all of the books J. R. R. Tolkien. I would recommend a Tolkien book to anybody who is creative and open minded. I would also recommend reading The Hobbit, prelude to the Lord of the Rings, and then moving into the trilogy. These books offer so much to the open-minded reader. Satisfaction, adventure, and an all around incredible story are just a few things Tolkien has given to so many readers.

Summary: Great book for those that like sci-fi/fantasy.
Review: Although I had not read "The Hobbit", it was not really necessary because it was summarized in the beginning of the book. I enjoyed it because it kept me reading non-stop and that is the sign of a good book. The world of Middle Earth and it's history was really detailed and helps keep the reader wanting to know more. Overall the book is good enough for a second or third read.
