Not as scary as I would have assumed it to be. Still a good story.

I only read "All Gold Canyon." I might circle back to this book. It being a collection of stories, however, I might not read it straight through.

I forgot how good this book was.

This book gives you a clear guide to practicing a philosophy of life. This philosophy needs not to be in competition with your theology or other belief systems. Stoicism, to me so far, is about mastering yourself and pursing virtues that are universally desired. The philosophy, and this book, give you a blueprint.

The movies were great. They missed the character of Aragorn, however. He's much more awesome in the book. Gandalf too is more impressive. However, the movies NAILED the hobbits and Golumn.
