No problem with this product, except that I didn't expected to see the ANGLO-SAXON original version of the text.

Christopher doesn't quite have all that his dad did. But this is still a good read for Tolkien lovers.

This is a nice, reasonably priced version of the old English tale, translated by J.R.R. Tolkien, our favorite writer of hobbits, Dark Lords and perilous jewelry. My Dad was very pleased to receive it as a present, and best of all, I can borrow it from him and read it myself! ;) Love it.

For anyone who cares about the subject and yet is too lazy to read the original it is always a joy to read Tolkien, a master of English. The story is not fantasy, which many mistakenly look for in Tolkien, but a classic of middle English literature. If you get hooked on this genre there are many other stories, both long and short, available, and the original language is not so different from our own.

Slightly more interesting piece of output, due to the theme being theold Green Knight story. That tale is usually quite entertaining, and isin this version, as well. The other piece is eminently forgettable,however. I suppose you would say that it is for Tolkien completistsonly.
