Title: A long swim, but worth it!
Review: I was first introduced to LotR by a friend when I was in High school. I read it twice over since the first time, and have always come away with the same impression. These booka are a heavy read ... but well worth it. I pits the most unlikely heroes against deep dark forces thatthreaten to overwhem to world.If you are a person who expects to understand everything you read, you will be sorely disappointed, because there are many references to a mythology upon which these stories are based that is never fully explained.In the end, good triumphs over evil, and the world is finally at peace, and you are left with a peaceful, satisfied feeling after reading it.
