It is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part.

Fantastic!

Tolkien's sweeping creation myth told in full, from beginning to end. Events are told in more details in books such as LOTR and The Children of Hurin, but this books serves as a good summary of those events.

Story
Since premiering in the summer of 2016, Stranger Things has become a global phenomenon. It also restored in vivid detail the pulse and feel of a decade: the 1980s. Indeed, the show's creators - the Duffer brothers - describe the series as "a love letter to the '80s". From its synth soundtrack, to its retro fonts, to its nostalgic nods to Spielberg and Stephen King, Stranger Things is populated with references, homages, and artifacts from the Reagan era. This audiobook dives deep into that world, revealing everything you wanted to know about the series and its influences.

Fantastic book, horrible narration
Reviewed: 07-01-22
Great book about the history and pop culture influences behind Stranger Things! Only issue was Patrick Miller is such a horrible narrator, he sounds flat and lifeless and occasionally flubs his lines. Did an editor listen before this was released?
