Interesting but showing it's age. More of a greek tragedy meets Brothers Grimm meets Norse folklore.
I will say comparisons to LotR or Narnia are fairly weak. This book, in my opinion, has so far paled in comparison to those works. The races contained within seem almost uninspired in comparison. Tolkein took things and made them his own, re-designed them, gave them character and life. TBS is lacking in soul atm.
