The Art of The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien by Wayne G. Hammond, J.R.R. Tolkien, Christina Scull
4.0
A whirlwind introduction to middle earth. I can see why and how fleshing out the film is justified. Each battle lasts just a few pages and each significant character just a chapter or so. I definitely prefer the epic that is lord of rings. I enjoy the detail and the incredible world Tolkien creates. There are just glimpses and teasers in the hobbit.
I think the fact that I didn't remember any of the story during this second read, shows that it is lacking in detail and doesn't draw you in as much as LOTR. Saying that I enjoyed it. Looking forward to seeing what they've done with the two upcoming films. I hope the episode with Smaug is sufficiently drawn out.
