THE BOOK OF THE CENTURY

The Fellowship of the Ring is the first volume in J.R.R. Tolkien's epic adventure The Lord of the Rings.

In a sleepy village in the Shire, a young hobbit is entrusted with an immense task. He must make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Crack of Doom, there to destroy the Ruling Ring of Power - the only thing that prevents the Dark Lord's evil dominion. --back cover

I first read the Lord of the Rings books in my late teens (a long time ago). I couldn’t remember much, only that I didn‘t like them nearly as much as the films (by Peter Jackson).

I was wrong. They are a masterpiece. Tolkien created something truly unique. The world, the characters, the songs, the lore. The story. It‘s simply amazing to read.

The Fellowship is only a part of something bigger. I‘m looking forward to reading the next books.

Berriz hasi naiz irakurtzen Eraztunen Jauna, ingelesez oraingoan. Nerabe nintzen irakurri nuen azkenaldian, eta bigarrenez irakurtzeak, egia esan, ahaztuta nituen hainbat detaile birgogoratzea ekarri dit.

Fantasiazko generoa gorpuztu duen obra nagusienetakoa, dudarik gabe. Bikaina.
