I've heard that is one of the few titles were the movie outdoes the book. I haven't read the book, but I've seen the films and can actually believe it might be true.
How are you finding it, Mole? I might get round to it myself at some point.
Jinx - Hard to say, really. The movie is excellent and the book is excellent also. I am not able to say which one is better. But surely read it, if you have enough time - it´s quite a tome
I'm now reading Return of the King. As I think I've stated on this thread previously, I was deternined to get around to reading the books sometime this year.
I finished Return of the King last night and enjoyed it.
Now I've started on Bernard Corwell's new book - Azincourt. I had to make myself stop reading it so I could post this and I've got other things to do this morning.
