Christian novel. This is the case because of its high moral character shown in many ways and its true depiction of the pattern of the struggle between good and evil as this expresses itself in individuals and more widely in cities nations and nature as well. Because of this I find it is a truly wholesome experience to read it. In a very vivid way made possible only when writing about a fantasy world Tolkien's
strengths and frailties which shape the story. When one reads tolken he finds himself transported into a world of Elves Dwarves Hobbits Ents Orcs and Dragons. The world is spellbinding. I first read these works when I was ten years old. I have read the Trilogy several times
