Je ne m'attendais pas à ce que la première partie de ce second volume exclue complètement Sam et Frodo, et j'en ai été assez surprise au départ, même si cela fait sens.

On en apprend d'avantage sur les autres membres de la fraternité de l'anneau, sur l'avancement de la bataille sur differents fronts, tout en gardant l'avancement de la quête ultime pour la fin.

Comme pour le premier volumes, ma difficulté à interpréter les descriptions de paysages était toujours bien présente, mais c'est la vie !

Jesus these books are hard to read but it’s lord of the rings so five stars. I’m excited to read anything else that won’t take me two months

magnificent! the second half isn’t quite as wonderous as the first, but I still noticed so much more now than when I read it for the first time ten years ago.
