Utterly fantastic read!
This is a book about a quest, a quest to dispel evil through the means of a ring. Nine companions are joined together to dispose of the ring where it was once made in the fiery chasm of Mount Doom in the land of Mordor. This is the story of their quest. This book is definitely one of the great ones. Tolkien officially kicks off the Lord of the Rings series in wonderful style. Fantasy and mythology mix in this book as we are met with such characters as wizards, dwarves, elves, and of course, hobbits. The settings are beautifully laid out, the characters are wonderfully described. And though I am one of the ones who have seen the movies before I read the book I found that the book still held a lot of surprises for me. Though they are the same story they hold subtle differences which is a delight to any who experience either. This is indeed one of the great epic fantasies and I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone.
