I love everything about The Return of the King and the whole trilogy. Excitement, adventure, fantastic characters and so much wisdom. I’m disappointed in Teenage Me for ever thinking these books weren’t for me, but I’m so glad I gave them another go in adulthood. ( ![]() I love this book so much. I love pretty much every part of it, even the deaths I suppress literally every time I reread it and have to be sad about EVERY goddamn time. It's the best. Best book ever? Best book ever. Everyone is just kicking ass and taing names and being funny and cute at the same time. The little hobbits doing their best pretttty much just to survive and accidentally saving the world in the process. The Scouring of the Shire is still one of my fave parts, because wow these tiny babies have grown up and can totally take care of themselves. And it's the ultimate proof that you don't wanna fuck with hobbits, because when they get pissed ... they get pissed. When I finished Chriss asked if it was as good as usual, and it was. You know it's a good book when you wanna reread it as soon as you finish: buuut I try to limit myself to once every year. That, um, is enough. :''''') So good. All of it. I even love the part with Sam and Frodo in Mordor, because oh my gods, Saaam!! He's so good in those. Soo. Good. And the five hundred endings are amazing too, especially The Scouring of the Shire. Fucking hobbits showing everyone who's boss. I've read a lot of books the past two years and I've started to think more about writing and the books I like or do not like and reading this for the 137th time ... I finally understand what true omniscient POV is!!! And how, of course, it's done in a good way. Tolkien knows how to do it. Not much "show not tell", but man, he can still make you feel with the characters and with the world. I love it. Oh, and I still stand by that Sam being polyamorous and in a relationship with both Frodo and Rosie is practiaclly canon. Reread done. I find that I am moved by my favorite parts still :) The arrival of the Rohirrim at the siege of Gondor, Theoden's farewell to Merry on the Pelennor, the last push of Frodo and Sam on Orodruin, and the departure of the Ring-bearers at the Grey Havens.
Nobody seems to have a moderate opinion: either, like myself, people find it a masterpiece of its genre or they cannot abide it . . . The demands made on the writer's powers in an epic as long as 'The Lord of the Rings' are enormous . . . but I can only say that Mr. Tolkien has proved equal to them.

For over fifty years, J.R.R. Tolkien's peerless fantasy has accumulated worldwide acclaim as the greatest adventure tale ever written. No other writer has created a world as distinct as Middle-earth, complete with its own geography, history, languages, and legends. And no one has created characters as endearing as Tolkien's large-hearted, hairy-footed hobbits. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings continues to seize the imaginations of readers of all ages, and this new three-volume paperback edition is designed to appeal to the youngest of them. In ancient times the Rings of Power were crafted by the Elvensmiths, and Sauron, the Dark Lord, forged the One Ring, filling it with his own power so that he could rule all others. But the One Ring was taken from him, and though he sought it throughout Middle-earth, still it remained lost to him . . . No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
