Today I finished reading The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien (as you presumably know). This was my first venture into the world of Tolkien bookwise, and although from what I had heard I suspected it to be good, I never realised just how wonderful it truly was. I admire him for the immense work he has put into creating everything, from the settings, characters and to the languages he created. When you read The Hobbit, you quickly notice that he has a way with words that exceeds the normal novel, the text flows naturally and it is almost like he plays with the words. Damn I really loved this book, I’m sure that I will eventually re-read this at some time, and now I can’t wait to get started on The Lord of the Rings.
