This is an excellent adaptation of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The cast are wonderfully talented, the music is beautiful.

Having raised my children listening to this play on auto trips, it was a pleasure to give a copy to my daughter and her husband for Christmas. They were thrilled to receive it and plan to make it a tradition in their family.

We are thrilled to have this. The portrayals are excellently done, and the plot follows what J.R.R. Tolkien actually wrote. This will be a family treasure.

I am a huge Tolkien fan, I have all the movies and now the cd's. It is great having them on cd so when I have to take a long car trip I can listen to them and keep boredom to a minimum. I would urge anyone that has long and boring car trips get these. This version has actual actors and sound effects, so it isn't just some actor reading. I do believe that it was well worth the money spent.

  Relive the books!
Review created: 06/10/08

This is an excellent dramatization of the books. It follows the books much more closely than the films do. It might be hard to adjust to the voices after seeing the films, but it is mostly quite well cast (Ian Holm plays Frodo!) and very enjoyable. Great for a bedtime story or long drives!

I remember when this was broadcast on the BBC many years ago and what an impact it had to me. I think it must have been some time in the 80s and I can still remember the excitement of waiting each week for the next episode and the thrill of sitting by the radio listening to the story unfold.

I'm hoping my children will get as much out of listening to this as I did.

A fantastic cast and a great dramatisation of a wonderful book.
