‘The English-speaking world is divided into those who have read The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and those who are going to read them.’ Sunday Times ‘A story magnificently told, with every kind of colour and movement and greatness.’ New Statesman ‘Masterpiece? Oh yes, I’ve no doubt about that.’ Evening Standard
Loved the books. First time reading. Only issue I found was the cardboard sleeve broke 2 days after purchase. Glue came apart. Could be repaired but not doesn't fuss me. May do to an avid collector
