J R R Tolkien has created a vast world with beautiful imagery and lovable characters. It’s witty, fun, and keeps the reader engaged and interested to know what happens next. I adore this book and am excited to read the rest!!
I took a break while reading it for the first time, so I started listening to it on audiobook as a refresher, until I caught up to where I’d left off in my physical copy. However, Phil Dragash’s audiobook with the soundscape composed by Howard Shore HOOKED me and I couldn’t stop listening. They do a phenomenal job at bringing out what’s beautiful about Tolkien’s writing, and I immediately wanted to listen to the next one. It’s on Spotify under the show name Roads Go Ever On and I highly recommend, if you want to hear such a great story come to life 🥰
