I am going to talk about the very first lord of the rings book, The fellowship of the ring part one. This book, has a great deal of adventure in, and doesn't lack in description. If anyone has read this book, im sure they would agree that this book may have a bit tooo much description in.
Description is good, but when you get too explaining every blade of grass to the last detail you may get bored. Even though i wanted to quit reading it so bad, i kept going because i know it does get better.
You go on this wonderful adventure with Frodo Baggins from Bag end. Along with Sam, his loyful companion. You meet loads of interesting characters on the way including, Tom who is like the god of all land, sea and sky in the area were he lives. And tom one day stumbles across the poor hobbits in a spot of bother and helps them out.
You also come across the great Gandalf the Grey. You don't see much of him in this book, but what you dont realise is that he has been very close all along.
And finally you meet the enemy, the black riders. Lifeless riders who rule for their evil master, and creator of the Ring. These riders are set out to kill Frodo and his friends and get the precious ring back to their master.
I urge you to read this book, and more important, dont give up. I admit, it gets really boring some times, but just keep reading and you wont regret it.
I hope i have helped at all.... Thanks for reading my short review :D

Welcome to ciao - good attempt at a first review although a bit more detail about the book itself, writing style and the actual story - you didn't mention the premise of the story, the one ring - this information would help you get higher ratings - Catherine x :)
