The Return of the King
Lord of the Rings #3
by J.R.R. Tolkien
Ebook, 512 Pages
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This would have gotten a 5star except for the Appendices.
A great end fraught with danger, determination, steadfast loyalty, overwhelming odds and over it all the hero’s tinge of melancholy.
Then I start in on the appendices. Tolkien let his History Buff streak break loose and I was so bored.
Oh yes, the appendices were quite boring. Kind of ruined the series for me. I also wasn’t that fond of the Shire being taken over by Saruman.

The appendices reminded me more of the Silmarillion than the Lord of the Rings. It was too bad 😦
