This is a brilliant book, but is hard to read. This thrilling sequal to the fellowship is just as good, but (parents) there is more violence. Personally this is my favorite series of all time, so if you love to read do it no matter what! (elenmadil Pippin is better!!!!!)
This book may be considered "Literature," but it's true identity is art. A bit dull and tedious at times, 'tis true, but flowing with rich description and a gripping story for the ages.
Even though it might not be my favorite in the series because of Gollum/Smeagol, it's still great to read. I quickly read through the first half, but the second part took me a while longer since it had my least favorite character. Despite the loathsome creature, I loved the book. One of my favorite parts Ent moot (they're so cool)! Anyways, worth the read and so much more.
i absolutly LOVE it!!! a great book! i give it a high recommendation! good morals, no swearing, nothing innapropriate. wonderfully written and fast-paced. and best of all, its ORIGINAL!! when u read it there aren't those little pop-ups in your head that say "hey wait...i remember reading something like this in ----" there is so much more i could say but you'll just have to read it for yourself!
