Great job

Absolutely love this set, One of my favorite series done with amazing narrators, Excellent purchase

Awesome!!!!!

Great narrator, great story not one thing wrong! If your a Tolkien or for that matter fantasy fan get it you will not regret it

absolutely Fantastic

I loved this dramatization, but I found it to be lacking in the story department. if I was unfamiliar with LOTR I believe I would have been lost at many different moments throughout.
but giving that I have read the book more time than I care to count I followed along perfectly and the voice actors were incredible!

Amazing!

Please refer to my in depth review of the trilogy on The Return of the King. In short, these 3 audio gems are priceless beyond measure.

My Christmas tradition

I used to listen to this series on cassette tapes way back when that was a thing. So nice to find the series and enjoy them again this Christmas.

flies through the book

A wonderful dramatization, but confusing if you aren't very familiar with the book. Mostly dialogue, it gleans over the descriptions and details of place and time. nonetheless it captures a literary feel and language that do the novels justice, often when the movies do not.

superb!

loved picking up the differences between the movie and the book. the performance was awesome and the characters unique personalities really grew on me :) best series ever written.

Excellent

Outstanding cast and performance, and the special should effects only added to the already great quality. The studio really did justice to the story. Highly recommended.

Nicely Dramatised

I've read the triligy several times and love the unabridged work, however this dramatised version has very good voices and pace. I don't care for the singing, but I tend to fast forward through that and it's just part of the story.

classic

Amazing dramatization. I listen to it regularly in the car. All of the voice actors are wonderful
