Summary: This is fantasy.
Review: What can I say that has not already been said? (except in the bad reviews) Tolkien has changed my perspective on life. I may be an evangelical Christian (Tolkien was Catholic) but I find his books full of great Christian insights. And besides that, his books are AMAZING. The descriptions: full, deep, beautiful. Rich with variety, color, and realism. I stand on the rocky crags of the Emyn Muil. I hear the ever-changing music of the Falls of Nimrodel. I see the breathtaking majesty of Minas Tirith. And I shudder under the menacing glare of the Dark Tower of Mordor. I have read this book countless times, and I am still moved by it. The characters: Rich, touching, real. I cry for Frodo and empathize with Sam. I cheer on Gandalf when he rides on the Pellennor Fields. I gasp as Eowyn removes her helmet, revealing her identity and defieing the Nazgul. I laugh at Butterbur puzzling over the thought of Strider as a King. Even the secondary characters seem to have lives and histories of their own. These are people I know. Last, the plot: Oh-h-h-h. "The Bridge of Khazad-Dum" still scares me half to death. "The Voice of Saruman" makes me want to slap that evil wizard. "Shelob's Lair" still takes my breath away. I swear: Tolkien did not make this up. Tolkien has been to Middle Earth. This book rates second on my list of Books of the Millennia (with the Bible as #1!) If you have not read it, read it! If you have, read it again!

Summary: So rich, so vivid . . . unable to put it down
Review: Prepare yourself to delve into a world so rich, so full of life and history that you will have trouble distinguising it from something real. The Lord of the Rings is a veritable treasure. I picked up The Hobbit quite some time ago, I think I was in the 4th grade. From the moment I read the first words "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit.", I just couldn't put it down. This book does, however, lack a few things. Smut, trash, cussing, and all of the other all too common things these days. This is pure fantasy, pure enjoyment. My only wish is that I had never read it, so that I could enjoy the experience of reading it the first time again. I warn you. If you are a very busy person, and don't have much time on your hands, then don't get this book, because you'll find yourself neglecting many important things to keep reading. With charecters so vivid that it wouldn't surprise me at all if I were to run into Gandalf on the street. In fact, I'm pretty sure I'd sit down with him and blow a few smoke rings before heading in our seperate directions. My point is, this is a wonderful series . . . arguably one of the best. Buy this book, take the chance. I did, and I have no regrets.

Summary: The powerful beginning to an unbelievable story
Review: If you haven't allready read the Fellowship of the Rings, now's a good time to start. This is the beginning of one of the greatest epic fantasy's of all time. It sets the scene to one of the best reading experiences of your life. It's not just a story of a few people, it's the story of a world. It's so rich and full of history that it's hard to believe that someone actually made it up. Don't worry, get this book, you won't regret it.

Summary: This is the best book that I have ever read in my life.
Review: This story is about a little hobbit named Frodo who has a powerful, but evil ring given to him by his Uncle Bilbo Baggins. Bilbo does not know about the past of the ring and doesn't know its evil ways. When Frodo finds out about the ring he wants to get rid of it, but the only way to get rid of it is to throw it in the fires where it was made. Him and his friends go on an adventure to bring it to the place of the fires. They did not know how difficult this was going to be. They had trouble with orcs, blackriders, and the spy's of Sauron (The Evil Lord). Many awesome things happen in this book. My summarizing is nothing compared to Mr. Tolkien's writing. Please read this book, I guarentee it will be the best!

Summary: Welcome to your new parallel world.
Review: This is for sure the best book ever written. If you are young, prepare yourself to live a grown-up adventure. If you are a grown-up, prepare to feel the excitement of your youth blood in your veins once again. You WILL understand the Tolkien's fan legion.

Summary: A great book for people who like fantasy, action, adventure
Review: The Fellowship of the Ring is a great book written by J.R.R. Tolkien. It is the first book in an epic trilogy known as The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. It takes place in the third age of Middle-earth. The main characters are Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin who are hobbits. A hobbit is a creature smaller than dwarves and they are furry, but resemble humans. It is action-packed and suspenseful. I gave this book 5 stars because I really liked it and also it has a very deep-winding plot. The Character I like best in this story is Frodo. I like him because he is just like his uncle Bilbo(from The Hobbit). His uncle Bilbo had adventures just like he will have and you can only find out if you read it. I recommend this book to people who like books that keep you on your toes.

Summary: A mysterious novel
Review: The Fellowship of the Ring has loads of mystery in just the first chapter. My curiousity led me to finish it and read as many books by this author as I could find.It is a little difficult to understand if you have not first read The Hobbit. J.R.R. Tolkien never ceases to amaze his readers and this living proof is just one out of his many books surrounding the world of The Hobbit.
