Of Mist and Shadow (The Mist King Book 1)

Product Information

The road in A Walking Song has been seen as a metaphor for destiny and experience for both Bilbo and Frodo that begins at their home Bag End. According to Tom Shippey, the name Bag End is a direct translation of French cul-de-sac meaning a dead end or a road with only one outlet. The journeys of Bilbo and Frodo have been interpreted as such a confined road as they both start and end their respective adventures in Bag End. According to Don D. Elgin, A Walking Song is "a song about the roads that go ever on until they return to at last to the familiar things they have always known." [3] Further information: The Lord of the Rings §Book 1 The Hobbits, having set out across the Shire, sing a song as they walk at the start of their epic journey. A different walking song, " The Road Goes Ever On", appears in different versions in The Hobbit, the first and third chapters of The Fellowship of the Ring – the first two by Bilbo, the third instance spoken by Frodo, alongside "A Walking Song"; and again in chapter six of The Return of the King, where again it is voiced by Bilbo. I liked this book so much that I kept reading it. It’s mature enough that I can read it without rolling my eyes, but at the same time something is too obvious… It has all the typical tropes. But I digress. This story begins with a mortal who basically lives in a bubble with others of his kind ruled by fairies, and an evil king (King of Light Oberon) who rules them all through fear.
