  Great For Teens! July 7, 2008 My son is doing this with a friend. They are both enjoying it and are able to work through it alone.
  Walking with Frodo March 11, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This could have been a very interesting read. It took us along with Frodo with many bible references. This is fine but unfortunately the author also tended to pontificate rather too much. As an open thinker I found this to be too "you must dothings this way" for my liking. It could have allowed the reader more freedom on their "devotional" journey than it did.
  Thank You Sarah July 30, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Sarah Arthur has become one of my favorite authors with her two devotionals based on the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit. Walking with Frodo, was a tremendous help to me, when I read it I was very angry with a lot of people for a lot of reasons, but as I read it I began to lose my anger, and feel free from that burden. This book helped change my life, and it can do the same for you. The two best ones from my point of view were the devotions writen about Sam and Aragorn. It's a must for any Tolkien fan.
  Doesn't always hold up... August 25, 2005 3 out of 9 found this review helpful
This is a very enjoyable devotional book, or just a book to sit down with on a rainy day. I didn't really get much out of it, though, either about Lord of the Rings or Christianity. Some of the "parallels" the author draws between characters in LotR and real life are flimsy and don't make much sense--she compares Faramir, for example, to someone you see at a party one night, having a great old time, and leading a Bible study the next. Huh? It maybe could have benefited from some more in-depth looks at certain things.
But it's good, especially for Lord of the Rings-obsessed Christians.
  Walking With Frodo- a teenager's review November 9, 2004 17 out of 18 found this review helpful
I got this book just because I like Lord of the Rings and I thought it sounded cool. I never knew how good it would really be! The author does a really good job of getting into the character's minds and motives and applying their situations and choices to real-life situations. This book was written for high school and college students, but I would reccomend it to adults too. How much spiritual truth can you learn from a pop culture phenomenon? You will be very surprised!
