The Lord of The Rings-The Fellowship of the Ring

The Lord of the Rings-The Fellowship of the Ring By: J.R.R. Tolkien

In true fashion after I finished The Hobbit I had to move on to The Lord of The Rings trilogy. the first of these is The Fellowship of the Ring. In this book we get to find out what has happened to Bilbo Baggins since he came back from his adventure in The Hobbit. We also get to meet a wonderful bunch of new characters as well as being reunited with a few well known characters. In this book we get to find out more about the mysterious magic ring that Bilbo found (The Hobbit) and we find out that it is a magic ring but also an evil one. Passed down from Bilbo to his nephew Frodo. When Gandalf the wizard makes the discovery of what the ring really is. Frodo starts his own adventure with 3 of his friends towards Rivendale where the elf's live to decide the destiny of the ring as well as himself. This book is so great, I really love this whole series and being able to go on this journey again has been a lot of fun. Due to the start of school it may take me a little longer than I would like to finish this series as well as the other books I am reading but it will be a journey worth taking. This story is a classic I think everyone should read at least once...if you like true and pure fantasy.
