These entertaining books & movies dramatically deal with many aspects of good & evil, while sustaining a genuine sense of fun. Intriguing storytelling, atmospheric places vividly described, & a company of well-developed characters -- including bespectacled orphan Harry Potter (whose forehead has been scarred since infancy by a battle with an evil personage who killed his good-magician parents), Harry's dull yet nastily-oppressive relatives, the eccentric professors at the institute where magic is taught, Harry's spirited pals - cheery Ron Weasely, studious Hermione, the rough & hulking friendly caretaker Hagrid & many more. These books are not only wildly popular, but also good enough to endure as children's classics.

The Lord of The Rings & THe Hobbit
by J.R.R. Tolkien


The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings (Boxed Set)

J.R.R. Tolkien's epic tale of hobbits, humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, magicians, & monsters in a struggle between good & evil in Middle Earth. The Hobbit story is much more simply written than the others, & is said to have been strongly affected by the point-of-view of Bilbo Baggins on his early explorations when he finds the strange Ring & meets the distorted cave-dwelling recluse hobbit, Gollum. The other 3 books make up the trilogy of The Lord of the Rings -- The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, & The Return of the King -- are told with much more scope & depth, & relate a serious, touching, stirring tale & exciting history.
