I'm not rating this. It's an iconic work of fiction and I suspect the audiobook might actually be very enjoyable. The book, however, is unreadable. I'm not finishing this.Cormac decided that quotation marks and proper punctuation were not needed. Tho ...more "

| A book of wonderfully innovative and progressive ideas (albeit flawed in some areas) that has unfortunately been bastardized by dismal leaders who 'claim' to be following its teachings. Marx and Engels were smart men. It would've been nice if their t ...more | |

| This is one of the sharpest, most complete works of fiction ever published. All killer and no filler from the first page to the last. I already thought Martin was good. After this book, no one can plausibly deny his genius. He is a cut above. He has ...more | |

| So much better than the first one that it's almost miraculous. I was really not expecting the first big plot twist, but was unfortunately spoiled for the second. I think the final plot twist is the one most people know of before even starting the ser ...more | |

Some of the best dialogue I've read. The plot is not very gripping to me, but the character work and prose is—as to be expected from this time period—fantastic. Even though I found it slow at times, this is still worth a read for anyone who likes cla ...more |

“I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I aim with my eye.
I do not shoot with my hand; he who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I shoot with my mind.
I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his father.
I kill with my heart.”

“Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men, doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.”

“It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going, because they were holding on to something. That there is some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for.”

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― The Fellowship of the Ring

No problem. LOTR is of course a classic. If you like it, you would probably also get a kick out of Name of the Wind. Thanks for accepting! :)
