Hi guys,
I was wondering...what was the first Tolkien book u read? and what made u like it so much that it made u continue reading Tolkien?
With me it was the Hobbit. I had never read fantasy before and i guess it was a good way to start [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] With me it was the idea of escaping to another world that had me hooked. I am a writer myself and i just find the idea of creating a world, history and language so ingenious it had me hooked! Well if u would like to share your first experience of Tolkien reading post it here! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
