No Lord of the Rings references - what gives!
Fun game!
This game is played similar to Cards Against Humanity or Apples to Apples. You select your character card and one attribute card, then a random attribute card is added alongside it. It might help you, or it could totally sabotage you. You then argue why your character would win in a fight. An example fight would be 100 Chuck Norris's with chainsaws for hands facing a 20 story tall kindergarten class that are impervious to projectiles.

Epic adventure!
Assassin's Creed is one of my favorite series of video games. I loved them all & this one may be the best of all. Ancient Greece is the setting & you play as one of two characters, either male or female. You play as a mercenary, which allows for many types of missions. The story is very involved and takes you all over an enormous world. The world is beautiful & it's worth exploring every inch.

My favorite new features of the game are the way you can hunt other mercenaries in the game & move up the chain. Sort of like the Lord of the Rings games where you can hunt specific orcs & goblins. The other is hunting cult members. You do missions to find out the identities of the cult members, then hunt them down. All very exciting.

So far they have kept the Azimuth stuff to a minimum, which is fine.

This game is huge. I have played for over 20 hours so far & nowhere near completing it. Not even half I would guess.

I also love the photo feature in the game & find myself using it a lot. The game is that beautiful.

If you like the others, then this is a must buy.

I switched off from audiobook to book & back with this book and I enjoyed it for the most part. The narrator was good but slow just like the book.

I have consistently been told that I need to read "The Fellowship of the Ring" and I am happy to say that I finally finished it. Fellowship of the Ring is more of an adult novel compared to "The Hobbit" which I was happy about. Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan of "The Hobbit" and I found it slow & drawn out. I would still say that "The Fellowship of the Ring" was slow & drawn out but I found it more entertaining.

I love fantasy but I also want a book that is fast paced and I felt that this book moved just as fast as molasses. The writing was beautiful which is what kept me engaged. Honestly, I feel that about 200 pages could have been removed and we still would have had the epic fantasy that "The Lord of the Rings" is.

All in all, it was good but not a must read for me.

Masterpiece
There is little I can say that has not already been said about The Lord of the Rings. It is an epic story of friendship, love, betrayal, war and essentially a coming of age journey. Middle earth and all its inhabitants come alive in your hands...you are transported to a world in chaos, a world of change where nothing is certain. Battle with dwarfs and elves, fight along side men who are impossibly brave and flawed and cry as the tiniest of people carry the biggest of burdens.
This book and the subsequent movies based on the world have been well quoted and are almost inbedded in British culture.
I envy those who haven't read them yet..you have a fantastic journey ahead. It will not be easy (this is not light reading) but it will be more than worth it. Enjoy, and give the elves my love.
