ProduktrezensionenThe Lord of the Rings Ser.: The Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien (1999, Quantity pack)

Four book set review

So....the only reason that I even knew that these books existed was obviously because the movies that have been made...well asides from the Hobbit.

Since books tend to be better than the movies that are created because of them, I decided to purchase this 4 book set. I have not read all 4 books, but am seeing that like almost every other situation, the book is better than the movie.

The books have more feeling and are more descriptive than the movies. The reader receives more information on actual situations that are occuring and on the actual character's feelings and thoughts.

I just find more information appealing, therefore I find these books almost a necessity for an individual that thoroughly enjoyed the films.Vollständige Rezension lesen...

Tolkien the father of Middle Earth

This series is by far and away the most influential of all fantasy series. Tolkien imagined a world inhabited by orcs and ogres, light and darkness, fellowships of good and evil. I first read the story when I was 15 and was fascinated by the world of Middle Earth. I waited 10 years before I read the series again so I could 'forget as much as possible'. The second reading was deeper and more enlightening than the first!

The series stirs the imagination and has spawned many games, movies, books and the 'genre' of Middle Earth. It is nice to lose one's self in another world from time to time and Tolkien's Middle Earth and lord of the Rings is a good place to start!Vollständige Rezension lesen...

Read these books!!!

This set was offered as ‘acceptable’ - but is perfect for a reread of the “Lord of the Rings”! I enjoyed having all the books together - an amazing fantasy adventure which preceded Star Wars or Harry Potter!! Set arrived promptly. Thanks for a great book set!!Vollständige Rezension lesen...

Amazing series and great illustrations

A great series by great author, Loved the covers and illustrations Alan.Lee. Only draw back was the covers tend to bend and get a bit out of shape. Also, I would recommend a hardcover. But over-all it's a great trilogy and the Hobbit is an amazingly thought up classic I was very impressed with. I would counsel any fantasy lover to read these books!Vollständige Rezension lesen...

A good read

This book series has been a favorite of mine since i was about 10 years old. Ive read the series several times and it still keeps me interested. I love fantasy and adventure and this book does it for me. Younger readers my have a harder time with the language but i dont dicourage it as i too read them. For the record these books are better than the movies they came out with.Vollständige Rezension lesen...

Great literature. Full of detailed descriptions about people and places. Slow paced and rich in style.

Best fiction story ever written....period. Full of hope in the end. Great villians and heroes.

Very happy with it

Books look brand new, the only thing that looks slightly worn is the bottom of the box they come in. Artwork on the books and box is cool, and it's half the price of the product when new. Definitely worth it. 😀Vollständige Rezension lesen...
