The Treason of Isengard: The History of The Lord of the Rings, Part Two by J.R.R. Tolkien, Christopher Tolkien

3.0

I didn't really plan on re-reading this until I did a project at uni analysing Lord of the Rings under a Freudian lens... I didn't see all the sexual undertones of LOTR until I did that project...

I honestly dont know how to review this book... I'm just going to do a list of this i liked/didnt like about it.

Likes:
○ all the self insert fanfiction this has produced. I don't even care what you think about those. I LOVE THEM. Adding more romance and rectifying Tolkien's woman problem in one swoop!
○EOWYN. I love her so so so much.
○Tolkien's writing!! I love his depictions of the scenery the most. He paints an image in your mind.
○ Merry, Pippin and the Ents. Honestly my favourite. I love the ents
○Gollum. He's my 2nd fave character.
○The hobbits in general.

Didn't like:
○GIANT SPIDERS. I HATE GIANT SPIDERS.
