Farmer Giles of Ham: The Rise & Wonderful Adventures of Farmer Giles, Lord of Tame, Count of Worminghall and King of the Little Kingdom

First against a Troll and then against the Dragon of ancient kind and imperial lineage, and very rich, Chrysophylax.

This is a fabulous tale from J.R.R Tolkien, not in the Hobbit or Lord of the Rings realm, but still a nice and enjoyable, cosy read.

Just like Smith of Wootton Major I didn't enjoy this quite as much as I remember liking it (it was still a fun little read). I think it may suffer from not having the illustrations that the book I read as a child did.

Het boek viel nogal tegen. De eerste zin sprak me aan dus ik verwachtte dat dit een leuk boek ging worden. Helaas. Het bleef bij de eerste zin. De rest van het boek was moeilijk te volgen en niet boeiend. Ik had het idee dat ik alinea's mistte, ik kon de verhalen niet goed volgen. Daarnaast waren het vage verhalen. De enige reden dat dit boek 2 sterren krijgt is de eerste zin, anders was het 1 ster geworden.
