Lord of the Rings Book Review

+ Amazing trilogy
+ Great book, great illustrations, great buy!

Hello there, I am about half-way through the first book of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and I am loving it.

Exponentially engrossing and exciting

+ Rugged Individualism

Even though it was written almost 300 years ago, it's still a very releveant and worthwhile read. Everyone knows the basic story of Robinson Crusoe - man stranded on deserted tropical island for over 20 years befriended by "his man Friday". But there is much more to the story that few are aware ...
