paleflyer 's review for:
The Return of the King
by J.R.R. Tolkien
I have now finished the books! I have not yet read the appendixes but I’m sure I will. I thought the book was great as were the other two. I would say my favorite book out of all three is Fellowship. Probably my next favorite is Two Towers. And then, of course, Return of the King. I loved the focus on Sam in the third book. He is such an amazing character. He really shows his strengths in helping Frodo every last step. Frodo never would have made it without Sam. Sam’s courage and determination are incredible.
I really loved the scouring of the Shire and I’m kind of sad it was left out of the movie. I can see why though, because the movies are already incredibly long. I was wondering ever since Orthanc what had happened to Saruman because in the movie they had him die then and there. But in the books he is killed in the Shire.
I am rather sad it is over, but at the same time I feel fulfilled, as if I've finished a long journey of my own. I just watched the trilogy and so finishing the book now just feels like I have completed a great journey, and I am glad it’s over because now I feel complete.
