3.0

This story was beautifully written and very lyrical, but I think this version of the story was made for people that are interested in also studying how Tolkien created and wrote his works, much more so than people wanting to learn more about the lore surrounding LOTR. It was a sweet story, a bit weird (in a good way) at times, just didn't stick with me as much as other bodies of work by the same author.
