Title: Calling all Tolkien Freaks
Review: Much has been said about the dryness of this book, and it is true; it reads like a cross between a text book and the King James Version of The Bible.With that said, if you loved the Hobbit, the Ring Trilogy and have a particular fondness for elves, you MUST at least skim this book. Even though this is not a page-turner, or a book you will read cover-to-cover, you will probably enjoy getting Tolkien's thoughts (which drive the stories in the above-mentioned books) about the beginnings of Middle-Earth.It's also very handy as a reference book and the pronounciation guide and glossary in the back of it are invaluable. :o)
