I grew up reading the Redwall series, which will always stay close to my heart. While I haven't read the Lord of the Rings series, I adore the movies and have seen them more times than I can even count. Both of these series laid the groundwork for my love of adventure, and storytelling, and story-making with my best friends through years of playing Dungeons & Dragons.This story is so captivating and beautifully written, and while I'll always be surprised I read this book at 25 and not 15, I'm so happy I finished it!
