The Children of Hurin

Well, I finished The Other Wind. Awesome beautiful amazing book. It made me cry. I would recommend that you read it, but read the Earthsea quartet first, (A Wizard of Earthsea being the first one) because it'll make more sense if you do. But oh, I love her books!

Now I'm reading The Children of Hurin, which is technically by J.R.R. Tolkien, but was edited by his son. It's set WAY before The Lord of the Rings, in the First Age of Middle Earth. (The Lord of the Rings was set at the end of the Third Age). I already know the story: it's a very sad story, but beautiful as well. I'm really excited about reading it!

Finally!

All right! I've FINALLY finished The Great Hunt! It was awesome. It had such an interesting, complex plot line, and I think that it will get even more interesting the following books. I love the characters. I don't think that I really hate any of the characters, (like I do in other books) because they are all so intriguing.

I have now started reading The Other Wind, by Ursula K. LeGuin. She is a wonderful writer. I highly recommend her books!

AAAA!!!

Haven't posted on here for a while! Just popping in to say that I'm still plowing through The Great Hunt. It's been taking me so long! But it's so good! I'm really pushing to finish it, because there are other books that I want to read: The Other Wind, The Children of Hurin, and Terrier, mainly. So many books, so little time! :)

Happy reading. :)
Peace favour you.
