This book is a must read for all - more accessible than Tolkien’s more complex works, the story is linear and easier to follow and full of twists and turns. It’s an adventure story full of whimsical moments, memorable dialogue, vivid description and intellectual humour. Also for those who have read the expanded lore, it connects more to the Silmarillion even than I realised.
