AN EPIC OF A CREATION

PHEW!!!! FINALLY I HAVE COMPLETED "THE LORD OF THE RINGS".... I AM STILL SPELLBOUND BY THIS LEGEND OF A BOOK FROM J.R.R TOLKIEN. I HAPPENED TO SEE THE MOVIE OF IT BEFORE BEING MESMERIZED TO READ THE BOOK ,,,, EVEN THOUGH I COULD NOT FOLLOW THE FILM, I FELT THERE WAS SOMETHING SPECIAL IN IT WHICH MADE ME TO HAVE A LOOK AT THE BOOK, SO IT ALL STARTED SIX MONTHS BACK WEN I BEGAN TO READ THE BOOK. IT WAS AN EXCELLENT JOURNEY!!!!! TOLKY(JRR TOLKIEN) WILL TAKE U TO AN ANOTHER WORLD.... TO A MEDIEVAL WORLD... SUCH WAS HIS SCRIPT...

WITH A PLETHORA OF IMAGINATION AND CREATIVITY , YOU WILL SURELY SEE YOURSELF AMONG THE CHARACTERS.TAKE A LOOK AT THE NAMES ARAGOHRN,GANDALF, SAMWISE GAGEE, FRODO BAGGINS, ANDUIN,EDORAS,LEGOLAS GREENLEAF,,,,, etc ADDS TO ITS AUTHENTICITY.THE TWISTS AND TURNS THAT U ENCOUNTER MAKES IT MORE GRIPPING. TOLKY HAS TAKEN A SOLID 2 DECADES TO COMPLETE THE ENTIRE SERIES( HIS FIRST WORK WAS "THE HOBBIT"), THE FIRST PART OF THIS BOOK WAS PUBLISHED IN 1950.IT GOT RAVE REVIEWS BOTH FROM THE CRITICS AND THE PEOPLE,, UNLIKE OTHER FAMOUS WORKS, LOTR WAS DEVOID OF FANFARE BUT IT STILL HAS A MASSIVE FAN FOLLOWING.

WELL , THE STORY REVOLVES AROUND THE "ONE RING", AND THE MISSION OF THE PROTAGONISTS IS TO DESTROY THE RING WHICH HAS EVIL POWERS. I LEAVE IT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT WHETHER THEY PULLED IT OF OR NOT.ONCE I WAS NEARING THE COMPLETION OF THE BOOK, I WAS BIT SAD,,, WHY DID TOLKY STOP WITH 3 BOOKS???!!!!! I WUD HAVE LOVED TO READ 3 MORE.... BUT 'TOO MANY COOKS SPOIL THE BROTH', SO I HAD TO CONTEND WITH 3.

THE ONLY FLAW : PERHAPS FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF AN AVERAGE READER, I WUD SAY THE PACE OF THE SCREENPLAY IS THE ONLY FLAW... TOLKY GOES LITTLE OVERBOARD IN DESCRIBING THE SCENES OR OBJECTS ( eg,,, TO SAY

" THE LEAVES ARE GREEN", TOLKY'S WAY OF IT IS " THE LUSH GREEN LEAVES SHINES LIKE A BRIGHT EMERALD IN THE PRESENCE OF A GLEAMING SUN THAT WAS AT ITS BRIGHTEST IN THE SUMMER..... :)),,, THIS IS JUST FOR A LINE, IMAGINE HOW MANY PAGES WUD IT RUN TO DESCRIBE A SCENE!!!! SO U JUS NEED A GOOD DEAL OF PATIENCE TO FINISH OFF THIS BOOK. BUT ARDENT N ENTHUSIASTIC READERS WUD NOT MIND THIS BCOZ U WILL BE BOWLED OVER BY THE CREATIVITY OF TOLKIEN .EVERY BIT OF THE BOOK IS BUBBLED WITH CREATIVITY.

JRR TOLKIEN - A GENIUS : THE BOOK DOESN'T END LIKE A CONVENTIONAL ONE. I SIMPLY COULD NOT THINK OF THE AMOUNT OF CONCENTRATION AND IMAGINATION THAT TOLKY HAS PUT TO BRING BACK THE DAYS OF THE MIDDLE EARTH,,, HE HAS GONE ALL THE WAY TO DESCRIBE THE CALENDAR, CHRONOLOGY OF EVENTS, MAPS , MEDIEVAL WRITINGS, ETC,. I AM COMPLTELY STUNNED. I HAVE NEVER SEEN AN AUTHOR GOING TO SUCH AN EXTENT!!!!!!

BOTTOMLINE : PLZ DON JUST READ IT, FEEL IT!!!!! ... I DON THINK MORTALS HAVE THE POWER TO DRAW AWAY FROM THE BOOK , ONCE THEY START READING IT

STARS : 4.5/5( THE BEST I HAVE READ IN MY LIFE)........

am not a bibliophile, i stick myself only to TINTIN, hardy boys stuff,(when i was a kid).... LOTR has made me to write my first review for a book....
