Ginger R. (moonlitdreams) wrote on 2/11/2007...


this is the last of the rings trilogy.

The great tale of wonder, like the great novel, is not a preoccupation of children... the adult mind has, if anything, greater need of fantasy than that of a child... In The Lord of the Rings, a whole secondary world is created and successfully sustained through three large volumes. these are sure to remain Tolkien's life work, and are cetainly destined to outlast our time.
