Rating: - An excellent reading (not a dramatisation)
Tolkien's book is a blend of narratives, plots and languages, designed not only to be written but also to be heard, and it is doubtful that anybody can better Inglis' reading of Tolkien's works.

His voice is rich and full, from the lowest note (his rendering of Treebeard is almost as scary as it is awesome), to his highest pitch. All the characters sound like individuals, and Inglis rarely falters in this fully unabridged reading of The Lord of the Rings.

Rating: - great at bedtime
as a kid i used to listen to these audio tapes in bed and enjoyed them thoroughly. However, the films recreate tolkeins world far better than is described in the tapes. They are a good introduction to tolkein if you cant be bothered to read the books. Frodo is played by Ian Holm, who plays Bilbo in the films.

Rating: - If you are about to see the film, get this!!
The fantastic story of the lord of the rings has been put into a very easy to listen to style. i was given this set last xmas, and as someone who had read the book, found it stunning. I perticuarly liked the casting, as the voices are as you would imagine them to be. If you are going to see the film and have not yet read the book, buy this, and you will not regreat it.
