Summary: The BEST Fantasy books that have ever been written.
Review: Words alone are nearly inadequate to describe the scope and power of Tolkien's masterwork. (The Lord of the Rings) His was the first of the fantasy epics, and still the best, because his world comes Alive like none since. The amount of detail which he put into it is staggering, and by the end, you are convinced that Middle Earth truly existed. Add to the mix a compelling quest, and a mix of believable characters. They truly evolve as the books go on, none are left untouched by what they encounter. There are huge battles, character conflicts, monsters, demons, and excitement galore. Yet, what keeps the Lord of the Rings unique is that he believes in the individual. All those battles and glorious deeds, while exciting, are ultimately unimportant. Everything in this series truly hinges on the efforts of two individuals, seperate from all else going on. It is this high drama which keeps the books interesting even today, when the shelves are stuffed with fantasy books about huge adventure

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Great? Yeah, right!
Review: This is one of the most boring books I have ever read! The only reason I kept reading this book all the way through is that I heard so many times that it is a classic. This book thoroughly sucked, and I'd suggest reading something better

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Grand Begin To The Greatest Fantasy Epic
Review: This book has to be one of the greatest fantasy novels ever! Frodo and his friends are just as delightful as Bilbo and the dwarves were in The Hobbit. I actually couldn't put this book down. It has everything from laughs to edge of your seat, spine-tingling suspense. If you haven't read The Fellowship of The Ring then you're missing out on something great. The Fellowship and the rest of The Lord of The Rings Trilogy deserve the title of classic

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: awesome fun and fantasy
Review: This book is great. It is not as good as the Hobbit, but Frodo is in a way like Bilbo. I love this book, and I'm going to read the series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Fellowship of the Ring is an epic tale of unprecedented
Review: The Fellowship of the Ring is the first book in the trilogy Lord of the Rings. This first portion of the book tells of the making and breaking of the Fellowship of the Ring. The major appeal of the story stems form its rich history of the mythical world Middle Earth, and the great number of characters. The Fellowship of the Ring tells of a little known race of beings called halflings, or as they like to all themselves Hobbits, who's peaceful and fun loving way of life is being threatened to the brink of total destruction as well as pure and utter chaos. None in the Shire,the secluded home of the Hobbits, know of this emanate danger which is rapidly approaching except one small Hobbit named Frodo. Fore he possesses a magical ring of immense power. A power which is sought after by the dark lord of Mordor and his nine black riders; who will stop at nothing and go to any lengths to obtain the One Ring. Frodo's ring. With the help and guidance of Gandalf the gray,a powerful wizard and a well respected member of the Great Council, Frodo resolves to travel to the ancient land of Mordor to unmake the One Ring of the Dark Lord, by casting it into the firy mouth of Mount Doom. Although the journey may prove parlous or even fatal Frodo and three of his closest friend begin their journey toward Mount Doom, which will that them more than a year from start to finish. I could go on for several dozen pages, how ever I would hate to destroy the great pleasure I found in reading and discovering the deep and rich history of Middle Earth. The best aspect of the Fellowship of the Ring is I never tier of reading it. I have spent many a nights reading well into the early hours of the dawn when I suddenly realize that thoughs "just five more minutes" have turned into just five more hours. And even then I will say to myself "just five more minutes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The diamond.
Review: LotR is in many ways a remake of the Hobbit, stretched out over five or six times as many pages. This time around, the shifting of the mood and focus are much smoother, though ultimately more extreme. There are also more memorable moments than you can shake an Ent at!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The most fascinating and complete work I have ever read.
Review: The lord of the rings trilogy is undoubtable the most intricate work of "fiction" I have ever read. Even though the subject matter is of elves and hobbits...your suspension of disbelief is easily reached and soon becomes an obssesive belief in the little people and their art of pipeweed. Even having already read this masterpiece four times, I would without a second thought choose it to read again if I could only read one more story in my dying days
