Quick reviews

The Hobbit: a fun jaunt in a dangerous world – full of dwarves, dragons and a wizard with an ulterior motive. Join Bilbo Baggins on his wonderful adventure in this excellent book. Suitable for ages 10+

The Lord of the Rings: 50th Anniversary, One Vol. Edition: one of the most majestic pieces of writing to hit the fantasy genre. It took the whole genre to a new level as it introduced the world to Middle Earth. With intrigue, love, danger and magic we follow the trials and tribulations of many heroes as they strive to save the world against the dark lord – excellent and compelling read. Suitable for ages 13+.

The Grapes of Wrath: a harsh look at the realities of the depression in the US as we follow the desperate journey of a family seeking work during the hard times – we see all aspects of human nature during this harrowing journey – a superb and thought provoking read.
