The Fellowship of the Ring Audiobook

" Cut out entirely too many important details. "

" This is the adult introduction for to Tolkien's magical universe. The book is wonderfully narrated. The audio book format is the only way that I could enjoy the book. Way too much detail for my taste for action and intrigue packed reads. "

" Excellent recording of a classic! Rob Inglis does a fantastic job with the narration! "

" De la trilogia es el que mas me cuesta de todos por ser demasiado descriptivo y lento en general. Pero solo Moria siempre sera MORIA! "

" Quite romantic, say no? No. It was quite exhausting. "

" I think this book did get boring during the first part, other than that it was stunning. I have just finished the Return of the King and the whole series is great. A must read. "

" A very good read but it takes a long time to pick up. This book is half setup for the trilogy. It's mostly exposition so I had to bare through it to get to what I deem the good stuff but it is by no stretch of the imagination a badly written book. Tolkien is just a stickler for details. "

" J.R.R. Tolkien did it again! Such a fantastic book. "

" "Here are beauties which pierce like swords or burn like cold iron. Here is a book which will break your heart." - C. S. Lewis "

" Intense , still a good read "

" better than the movie. also helped that i read the hobbit first. "

" Just as brilliant as i remembered, actually better. Gandalf, Galadriel and Boromir are may favourite characters... by the way i have seen the movies and read these before so I am fully aware of all heartaches that occur even if i refuse to accept them... :) I love this story! "

" I read for first time in 1971, have re-read trilogy probably 25-30 times. Still makes me cry when Frodo leaves for the Undying Lands from the Grey Havens. "

" The writing was gorgeous, perhaps I just don't take to fantasy stories but I found this really hard to follow and quite dry in bits. Of course it was much better than the movie with the walking ;) "

" Vivid, imaginative and amazingly detailed series. I thoroughly enjoyed traveling back to Middle Earth and reacquainting myself with the characters of this trilogy! "

" Perfect. Sublime. And all those things we all know about JRR Tolkien. And if you don't know, read it. "

" Loved it. The book was far better than the movie but it was great that another author was chosen to be recognized. It was a book that I had to read twice in my life to get all the way through it. But with age comes wisdom. "

" If you like very detailed descriptions (such as what the color red looks like) than this is the book for you. If you don't, I recommend just watching the movies. "

" The first two parts (yeah, 6 parts in three books) of The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, if somewhat hard to keep up on its extensive description, is an incredible tale of adventure and friendship. "

" Me encanta la historia, pero me costo demasiado terminarla "

" This a re-reading. After reading modern fantasy stories (actually, I'm looking at Name of the Wind), this is obsolete. Yes, a mark in worldbuildng, and the father of all fantasy stories but, despite that, a regular book. Boring beginning, poor plot... Read it for historical purposes. "
