book
The Lord of the Rings
The Nation : "A work of immense narrative power that can sweep the reader up and hold him enthralled for days and weeks."
Kansas City Star : "J.R.R. Tolkien's epic trilogy remains the ultimate quest, the ultimate battle between good and evil, the ultimate chronicle of stewardship of the earth. Endlessly imitated, it has never been surpassed."
Newsweek : "A remarkable book"
Time Magazine : "One of the great fairy-tale quests in modern literature"
The Chicago Tribune : "A sustained feat of imagination that has entranced millions"
The Washington Post : "Tolkien"s stories take place against a background of measureless depth…That background is ever-present in the creator"s mind and it gives Frodo and company a three-dimensional reality that is seldom found in this kind of writing."
