If you haven't read these short tales by Tolkien, you owe it to yourself to do so. Tolkien's created two modern fairytales which are enjoyable by readers of all ages. I recall reading these two when I was a schoolboy and still keep a copy of this book on my shelves.

These are two very enjoyable stories, but nothing too far out of the ordinary. If you're a big fan of Tolkien I'd recommend you seek these out and read them, but if not, it's probably not really worth the trouble.

Two short adventures in one book! All i can say is Tolkien has a very vivid imagination to be sure!! I love The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. This book reads like those but far more out there and not so indepth! LOL!
