Andrew Fuller’s Reviews > The Fellowship of the Ring > Status Update

“Indeed in nothing is the power of the Dark Lord more clearly shown than in the estrangement that divides all those who still oppose him.”

Is this book about us?

‘Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens’ said Gimli

‘Maybe’ said Elrond, ‘But let him not vow to walk in the dark, who has not seen the nightfall’

I love the way Tolkien writes the contrast between Elrond’s measured skepticism and the fellowship’s ignorance about their journey.

Finally get to meet Tom Bombadil!
