That’s true. I watched the animated ones as a kid but the Jackson movies made me read the hobbit and I finally read LOTR trilogy earlier this year
I aged into the LOTR hype with Fellowship coming out when I was a tween but read the full book before before the trilogy was finished and Tom Bombabdil was my favorite character. My dad did the books on tape with me for the Hobbit before then and I still remember intently listening during the troll story and wanting to be like Beorn because being able to change into a giant bear was awesome. I read some of Harry Potter, but Tolkien, the Redwall series, and Greek mythology was soooo much better, especially as a young teen.
Who wrote the Redwall series? I know basic Greek Mythology but want to do more if a deep dive and I’ve read the Harry Potter books
You’re in luck! Stephen Fry has done an excellent trilogy on Greek myth, heroes, and the Iliad. Hopefully he does the odyssey as well, the audiobooks are all read by him as well. Redwall was done by Brian Jacques and is a brilliant series on medieval times but with animals portraying the characters.
Lawl. Some dude saying medusas are actually black weeman. And black weeman, thus are so beautiful, it caused men to turn into stone. Their logic was... dreadlocks mistaken as snakes lol.
