It will go over the novels “The Fellowship of the Ring”, “The Two Towers”, and “The Return of the King”. ![]() Tolkien, this section will help with that. BEST THE LORD OF THE RINGS BOOKS:įor those readers looking to get into the “Lord of the Rings” series written by author J. The series was made into a trilogy of Academy Award winning movies by filmmaker Peter Jackson, this is the most known adaptation of the series. THE LORD OF THE RINGS BOOKS INTO MOVIES:Īn animated adaptation, released in 1978, was made by Ralph Bakshi. It was put in the Prometheus Hall of Fame Award in the year 2009. The series won International Fantasy Award in the year 1957. Tolkien started the series when he was 45 years old, and the books would not all be published until he was 63 years old. The series was written over about twelve years, from the year 1937 until the year 1949, and has since been translated into many foreign languages, besides English. The novels each of two books in them and have many appendices of assorted background materials in the back of them. The series has been published both as a trilogy and a large single edition, with the entire saga in one volume. At first, the series started out as a story that would serve as a follow up to “The Hobbit”, Tolkien’s previous novel it grew into a much bigger body of work. ![]() ![]() ![]() There are hippos (because a few decades earlier, the US government imported them to help with hunger then things got a bit weird, some of them escaped and tuned feral and bayous of Louisiana were never the same). ![]() Set in the 1890s in an alternate America, this novella should have been a lot of fun. I want to thank the publisher for providing me with a free copy through NetGalley for an honest review! ( ) On the plus side are they interesting characters and I'm looking forward to getting to know them more in the next novella! Personally, did I struggle a bit with keeping the characters (and hippos) apart, and I would have loved a deeper introduction into each and every one of the characters. I do think that if you like alternative stories should you really read this book. This is book one so it will be more of them and I will definitely read them. It's a short story only 152 pages long and that could be why I felt like I wanted more meat to the story. ![]() ![]() I loved the idea of this book, with hippos in the marshlands of Louisiana and the story was interesting, but it ended when it started to get really interesting. But, at the same time did I feel that this was not a book that I devoured. Sure it's good, with an interesting story and some really gruesome scenes. I think in the end, that I just had too high hope on this book. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Kennedy listed it amongst his ten favourite books. ‘Mr Fleming’s tautest, most exciting and most brilliant tale’įrom Russia with Love was published during the Cold War, and John F.
