Original at Becky's Book Reviews
• Sun, Nov 16
By blaney1129@gmail.com (Becky) Note: I've read 18 books so far. I had initially wanted to read The Once and Future King by T.H. White and The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. But I just don't see that happening. Note: I've read 9 books. I'm lacking the Lord of the Rings trilogy, however.

Original at LibraryThing reviews of books owned by Aquila
• Mon, Dec 3
Kynaratholis's review: "A Tolkien original work. Long winded and over detailed in an ever-surprisingly good way. The story and narration is pretty good, but the end is kind of jumbled, though much better than the movie's."

LotRO's ultimate strength is it's Tolkien license. LotRO does an excell...

By Brian Crecente Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-Earth II hit stores today and if you were lucky you got yourself one. I'm sure there are going to be plenty of hardcore computer RTS fans out there who will say you can't do real-time strategy on a console, but I think this game proves you can.
