Summary: An amazing recordings!
Comment: I was always wondering how it would be if the Tolkien himself read his books - and this is it! Of course these are just different parts of his books, but some recordings are really long (30 min or so, like Hobbit:"riddles in the dark"). This would be a great present to every Tolkien fan.

Summary: The Tolkien Audio Collection [abridged] a most marvlous expe
Comment: Ever wanted to actually HEAR the voice of the author of "The Lord of the Rings" books reading some of his own wanderfull work? Well, whith this collection, you CAN!!! Yes, it's true, Tolkien reading his own writing!!! Among the many treasures contained in this fabulous four disk collection is a sample of Tolkien reading the two lines of writing on the ring, "one ring to rule them all..." No, he doesn't read it in the black speech, but I'd like to think that he DID record that. there's a pretty good sprinkling of Elvish here too: both spoken and sung. You will just love the first item in this collection. Here, Tolkien reads the passage about Golumb from "the Hobbit". It should be noted that He reads at a fairly fast rate so you may have to listen somewhat more closely than you might otherwise. This one will just keep you coming back again and again and again!!!!! You'll NEVER tire of it.

Summary: What a treat!
Comment: To a Tolkien fan since childhood, hearing the author himself reading his material was a somewhat emotional experience. Ideally, the recordings would be a complete reading of the whole LoTR trilogy or more, but even with the clips and bits available they are very much worth the buck.

To me, these recordings have confirmed that I have read the books "in tune" with Tolkien himself, and I feel that to a certain point they confirm that the movie pictures have captured Tolkien rather well, too.
