Farmer Giles of Ham by Wayne G. Hammond, J.R.R. Tolkien, Christina Scull

4.0

This was my first time reading Farmer Giles of Ham, and I have to say I was pretty delighted. The story was really fun, the characters were entertaining (Garm was my favourite, but Chrysophylax was oddly delightful as well). The most recent Tolkien work I read before this is probably Tolkien's most bleak (although I did still enjoy it--The Children of Hurin), so it was a relief to read something so light. Derek Jacobi's narration was enjoyable as well.

I'm super glad to have read this, and I've fallen into the pit of "the more Tolkien I read the more Tolkien I want to read" so I'm sure I'll be reading more.
