tofusean reviewed The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien
He looked at maps and wondered what laid beyond their edges.
5 stars
This book is amazing. While the Hobbit felt like a fun adventure in the woods, takes things up a notch and feels like a proper epic quest. My favorite quote by far from the book happens early on, | Frodo was beginning to feel restless, and the old paths seemed too well trodden. He looked at maps and wondered what laid beyond their edges.
The book meanders through the story, but at no point does it feel dull or slow. Tom Bombadil is also a great addition to the book and I'll fight anyone who states otherwise.
I listened to the Andy Serkis narration and he absolutely knocked it out of the park.
