    Such a nice novel is a shame to have:
    1) publishing quality the same as that of a book distributed for free with a Sunday newspaper
    2) the translation needs quite a bit of improvement..! There are expressive errors, words are repeated, sentences stop abruptly, etc.

    The story is very beautiful and the way things are narrated makes you want to see what happens next. The translation of this edition requires a lot of work because it greatly undermines the author. It's a shame to want to read the book and come across expressive mistakes by the translator that show a carelessness in the whole work. If you can find it in other editions, then I recommend buying it.

    Very good book, excellent adventure and continuation of the story!
    The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is the specific edition series which I personally find offensive to the series and awful, from the cover to the fact that they are not even bound! It's as if they are supermarket editions. It's a shame because Tolkien's books in English are mostly in excellent editions.

    Incredibly epic story (I'm talking about the entire trilogy). The world that Tolkien creates is endless and enchanting. The truth is that at some point, the reading tired me. It's not like the new action books by the most contemporary authors. But there is no other story like this one, and Tolkien is a pioneer.

    This review is about the book: The Return of the King

    The smallest in pages book of the trilogy but in the same spirit and imagination as the previous books. It is worth buying for anyone who hasn't seen the movie.
