Jedná se o krásně zpracovanou knihu, která potěší každého fanouška Tolkiena a jeho tvorby. Kniha vás provede místy, které Tolkien v životě navštívil a které ho inspirovaly v jeho tvorbě. Výlet v Alpách je například jasnou inspirací pro Rivendell, ale najdou se zde i méně očividné inspirace, ke kterým se čtenář velmi rád dopracuje sám. Jen bych chtěl upozornit na to, že kniha je spíše informativní a naučná, než dobrodružná.
