Reading Middle-earth
A reader's journey through J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings.
The road goes ever on and on...
A few years ago, whilst whining that I wanted to write more, my wife offered a wise suggestion: Relax; write something for fun – something that'll make you happy.
Well, The Lord of the Rings makes me happy. I also believe it has a lot to teach us about living the good life. And so I resolved to blog through the story chapter by chapter and forage for its lessons, the fruits of which are available for the Fellowship of the Ring below.
