Review: If it wasn't for him I would not have a high reading level. It would be neat to meet his family.

Summary: A Beautiful Map
Review: This is a review of the map itself, not of the pamphlet that comes with it.

The map is clear, correct, and large enough to make out place-names that are almost illegible if you look at the maps in the paperback editions of Tolkien's works. The pictures are also excellent, but there is one flaw which has caused me not to give the map five stars: the paintings of Minas Tirith and various Good Guys are on the East side (right side) of the map while the pictures of Barad Dur, the Nazgul, and assorted other Bad Guys are on the West side (left side) of the map. Now, the problem with this is that the West contains the lands of the Good Guys and the East contains the lands of the Bad guys. It seems to me that these pictures should have been flipped so as to more accurately represent the political realities of Middle-earth.

Summary: Simple and perfect
Review: This tiny little book is the perfect companion to "The Lord of the Rings" Trilogy. It is beautifully made and designed to either be something you can fit in your pocket, or put up on your wall. (It folds up nicely)

I would reccommend this to anybody who has read the series or is just starting out.
