How does he do it? George R.R. Martin's high fantasy weaves a spell sufficient to seduce even those who vowed never to start a doorstopper fantasy series again (the first book--A Game of Thrones--runs over 700 pages). A Clash of Kings is longer and even more grim, but Martin continues to provide compelling characters in a vividly real world.
The Seven Kingdoms have come apart. Joffrey, Queen Cersei's sadistic son, ascends the Iron Throne following the death of Robert Baratheon, the Usurper, who won it in battle. Queen Cersei's family, the Lannisters, fight to hold it for him. Both the dour Stannis and the charismatic Renly Baratheon, Robert's brothers, also seek the throne. Robb Stark, declared King in the North, battles to avenge his father's execution and retrieve his sister from Joffrey's court. Daenerys, the exiled last heir of the former ruling family, nurtures three dragons and seeks a way home. Meanwhile the Night's Watch, sworn to protect the realm from dangers north of the Wall, dwindle in numbers, even as barbarian forces gather and beings out of legend stalk the Haunted Forest.
Sound complicated? It is, but fine writing makes this a thoroughly satisfying stew of dark magic, complex political intrigue, and horrific bloodshed. --Nona Vero [via]

El Silmarillion es el cuerpo central de los textos narrativos de J.R.R. Tolkien, una obra que no pudo publicar en vida porque creció unto con él. Tolkien comenzó a escribirlo mucho antes que El Hobbit, obra concebida como historia independiente, pero que fue parte de lo que él llamaba un "tema que copia y se ramifica", y del que emergió El Señor de los Anillos.El Silmarillion cuenta la historia de la Primera Edad, el antiguo drama del que hablan los personajes de El Señor de los Anillos, y en cuyos acontecimientos algunos de ellos tomaron parte, como Elrond y Galadriel.Los tres Silmarils eran gemas creadas por Fëanor, el más dotado de los Elfos, y contenían la Luz de los Dos Árboles de Valinor antes que los Árboles mismos fueran destruidos por Morgoth, el primer Señor Oscuro. Desde entonces la inmaculada Luz de Valinor vivió sólo en los Silmarils, pero Morgoth se apoderó de ellos, y los engarzó en su corona, guardada en la fortaleza impenetrable de Angband en el norte de la Tierra Media.En este volumen se incluyen otras obras cortas, como el Ainulindalë o la Música de los Ainur, la creación mítica del mundo, y el Valaquenta, sobre la naturaleza y poderes de los dioses. A El Silmarillion sigue el Akallabeth, que vuelve a narrar la caída del reino de Númenor al fin de la Segunda Edad, y por último la historia De los Anillos del Poder, en la que el tema de El Señor de los Anillos reaparece en la perspectiva más amplia de El Silmarillion.El Silmarillion no es una novela, ni un cuento de hadas, ni una historia ficticia. Podría definirse como una obra de imaginación inspirada, una visión sombría, legendaria o mítica, del interminable conflicto entre el deseo de poder y la capacidad de crear. [via]

The prequel to The Lord of the Rings- The Hobbit- is now a major motion picture directed by Peter Jackson THE GREATEST FANTASY EPIC OF OUR TIME The dark, fearsome Ringwraiths are searching for a Hobbit. Frodo Baggins knows that they are seeking him and the Ring he bears-the Ring of Power that will enable evil Sauron to destroy all that is good in Middle-earth. Now it is up to Frodo and his faithful servant, Sam, with a small band of companions, to carry the Ring to the one place it can be destroyed: Mount Doom, in the very center of Sauron's realm. Thus begins J.R.R. Tolkien's classic The Lord of the Rings, which continues in The Two Towers and The Return of the King . [via]

Readers of epic fantasy series are: (1) patient--they are left in suspense between each volume, (2) persistent--they reread or at least review the previous book(s) when a new installment comes out, (3) strong--these 700-page doorstoppers are heavy, and (4) mentally agile--they follow a host of characters through a myriad of subplots. In A Game of Thrones, the first book of a projected six, George R.R. Martin rewards readers with a vividly real world, well-drawn characters, complex but coherent plotting, and beautifully constructed prose, which Locus called "well above the norms of the genre."
Martin's Seven Kingdoms resemble England during the Wars of the Roses, with the Stark and Lannister families standing in for the Yorks and Lancasters. The story of these two families and their struggle to control the Iron Throne dominates the foreground; in the background is a huge, ancient wall marking the northern border, beyond which barbarians, ice vampires, and direwolves menace the south as years-long winter advances. Abroad, a dragon princess lives among horse nomads and dreams of fiery reconquest.
There is much bloodshed, cruelty, and death, but A Game of Thrones is nevertheless compelling; it garnered a Nebula nomination and won the 1996 Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel. So, on to A Clash of Kings! --Nona Vero [via]

"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort."
The hobbit-hole in question belongs to one Bilbo Baggins, an upstanding member of a "little people, about half our height, and smaller than the bearded dwarves." He is, like most of his kind, well off, well fed, and best pleased when sitting by his own fire with a pipe, a glass of good beer, and a meal to look forward to. Certainly this particular hobbit is the last person one would expect to see set off on a hazardous journey; indeed, when Gandalf the Grey stops by one morning, "looking for someone to share in an adventure," Baggins fervently wishes the wizard elsewhere. No such luck, however; soon 13 fortune-seeking dwarves have arrived on the hobbit's doorstep in search of a burglar, and before he can even grab his hat or an umbrella, Bilbo Baggins is swept out his door and into a dangerous adventure.
The dwarves' goal is to return to their ancestral home in the Lonely Mountains and reclaim a stolen fortune from the dragon Smaug. Along the way, they and their reluctant companion meet giant spiders, hostile elves, ravening wolves--and, most perilous of all, a subterranean creature named Gollum from whom Bilbo wins a magical ring in a riddling contest. It is from this life-or-death game in the dark that J.R.R. Tolkien's masterwork, The Lord of the Rings, would eventually spring. Though The Hobbit is lighter in tone than the trilogy that follows, it has, like Bilbo Baggins himself, unexpected iron at its core. Don't be fooled by its fairy-tale demeanor; this is very much a story for adults, though older children will enjoy it, too. By the time Bilbo returns to his comfortable hobbit-hole, he is a different person altogether, well primed for the bigger adventures to come--and so is the reader. --Alix Wilber [via]

Returning to Hobbiton after an absence of many years, the wizard Gandalf quickly sought out Bag End, the home of his old and dear friend the hobbit Bilbo Baggins. It was the morning of Bilbo's one hundred and eleventh birthday, and a party of special magnificence was planned for that night. The old hobbit had been plagued by the incessant attentions of unwanted visitors, well-wishers, and distant relations, prompting him to hang out a sign on his front gate warning "No admittance except on party business." It was in this grumpy state of mind that Bilbo, completely unprepared for the joyous reunion that awaited him, stomped to the door to answer Gandalf's knock.

Le Tiers Age touche à sa fin, et la Terre du Milieu à son crépuscule. La Compagnie de l'Anneau va donc tâcher de déjouer les projets infernaux de Sauron, force du mal d'autant plus difficile à combattre qu'elle est désincarnée. Qui, des cinq héros, mènera à bien la mission ? Gandalf, grand sage qui seul mesure la portée de la quête ? Aragorn, qui dissimule ses origines princières sous les traits d'un rôdeur taciturne ? Frodon et Sam, qui sont chargés de la phase finale de la mission ou Gollum, créature abjecte qui fut un temps dépositaire de l'anneau ? Mais quel est donc le pouvoir de cet anneau tant convoité ? Quelle est donc la signification de l'énigme qui figure en première page, en manière d'épigraphe ?
Tant de questions qui ne sont qu'une infime partie du mystère féerique qui, depuis 1954, ravit l'imagination, autorisée pour un temps à s'attarder dans un séjour magique aux forêts profondes et ancestrales, aux paysages argentés peuplés d'êtres aériens, de jeunes guerrières intrépides, de destriers sauvages ayant la fierté de leurs maîtres, de viles créatures dont la laideur physique reflète la méchanceté... Tous, nous avons rêvé de ce repos de l'âme, de même que nous avons craint, enfants, la menace sourde et inexplicable. Tolkien, lui, a su nommer cet univers, et en faire une épopée passionnante, quête initiatique où l'errance humaine est regardée avec une tolérance rassurante.
Mais quels sont ces petits êtres rigolos et surprenants, ces "hobbits" ? D'où viennent ces accents folkloriques, ce langage essentiel, cette mélancolie onirique qui teinte l'esprit d'un brouillard étrange une fois le volume refermé ?
Tant de questions auxquelles, heureusement, Tolkien ne répond jamais tout à fait malgré les cartes, généalogies, lexiques et autres appendices passionnants que son imagination prolifique a fournis sur La Terre du Milieu. --Sana Tang-Léopold Wauters [via]

Boromir verteidigt die Freunde bis zu seinem eigenen Tod, doch die Hobbits werden gefangengenommen. Aragorn, Legolas und Gimli nehmen ihre Spur auf. Merry und Pippin gelingt die Flucht, und sie kommen in einen geheimnisvollen Wald, wo sie Baumbart treffen, einen uralten, baumähnlichen Riesen vom Geschlecht der Ents. Er erkennt die Gefahr, die Mittelerde droht, und sammelt sein Volk, um Saruman anzugreifen. Aragorn, Legolas und Gimli treffen überraschend auf Gandalf, der nicht tot ist, aber verändert.

Dieser finstere Ort wird von Kankra bewacht, einer Riesenspinne, die Frodo mit ihrem Stachel vergiftet. Sam beschließt schweren Herzens, den Ring zu nehmen und die Quest alleine zu beenden. Doch da belauscht er ein Gespräch der Orks und erfährt, daß Frodo nicht tot ist, sondern nur bewußtlos. [via]
