Synopsis: It’s up to Boggie Frito Bugger and his band of misfits—including inept wizard Goodgulf Grayteeth, halfwit Spam Gangree, twins Moxie and Pepsi, and Arrowroot of Arrowshirt—to carry the Great Ring to Fordor and cast it into the Zazu Pits. Can they avoid death by hickey tree and escape the dread ballhog? Can the fellowship overcome the narcs and Nozdruls hounding their every move and save Lower Middle Earth once and for all? Yes, of course—this isn’t Hamlet, you know.
Review: No. Just no.
If you want to read this book and like it, you should have read The Lord of the Rings (and you'd have to have comprehended and enjoyed them, unlike me) and have a crude sense of humor, neither of which I have done. I'm not exactly sure of where I bought it, but I thought it would help me get into The Lord of the Rings. I was proven wrong.
Overall, Bored of the Rings was boring, crude, and hard to get through (I used my speed reading technique that is mentioned in the footnotes of this book).
Nor recommended.
