Book review/fact: Lord of the rings
The book was written in between the years of 1937 and was published in 1954. The book was written by the English professor J.R.R. Tolkien. He studied languages and was a university professor teaching English.
The book is about a hobbit, a short and a bit more hairy version of a human, who must go on a mission to destroy a dark and powerful magic ring. Frodo, the hobbit, three of his hobbit friends and a wizard sets of towards a village where they are to meet up with a human warrior. Later on the way they also befriend a dwarf and an elf and together they venture out towards Mordor, the land of the dark lord Sauron. In Mordor they must throw the ring in the very volcano it was forged in, for the fire that created it is the only power on Middle Earth that can destroy it. But the land is filled with traps, dangerous creatures and orcs. It is a hard task the group has to complete, and even though the books has been out for 60 years I won't spoil the end.
When I read the books it didn't really give me a special feeling or anything, but it was fun reading it. I don't really have any special memories either, but he was very good at literature and describing the world and what's happening in it, if anything, that's my special memory. However afterwards when I got to know how much lore Tolkien created around his world, it caught my attention. I haven't really looked it up that much, but I really like reading about lore, and he built up an entire world, so someday I will read his other books and read about the gigantic world he created.
