For what is essentially LOTR With Chicks, it's a much more readable story than Tolkein's trilogy. I was doing all right with the usual eye-rolling fantasy tropes until I got to the ‘Mountains of Dhoom'. Yeah, the book is nearly 25 years old, but really. Overall though, I enjoyed it and will probably slog through the rest of them.
