I couldn't force myself past the terribly dull beginning, I just couldn't. I didn't find the language difficult or anything.

Yes, the beginning is a bit of a struggle. But it's fantabulous when you get past that.

I'm with Jacques the Teacher. I adore lord of the rings. I started reading it in 4th grade and I have been obsessed ever since. PS: if you love LotR then try Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time--another amazing series! (but be prepared to read 11 or so 1000 page novels that take a looong time to finish)

The beginning is too dull.

Really? I wasn't aware that a party with an entire nation is invited, filled with food, fireworks, and other wizardry, not to mention the host vanishing before the eyes of thousands of people was dull. But if you insist...

I agree with Shadow and Jaqcues. It does get pretty boring at first. But, when you acutally take the time to see the movies, it gets quite interesting.

*facepalm* We're talking about the books here. At least I am. You should take the time to read the books Scott. I was in 7th grade when I read them and that's your grade now.

Go read the books then, then you'll know everything about both.

Good Idea. I think I'll start reading them once school starts.

I've already started reading them, and it was a little boring until Gandalf arrived, but its still overall GREAT!
