Tookland Trolls  by Golden 2 Review(s)
LarnerReviewed Chapter: 2 on 8/15/2007
Pippin's not the first nor the last to be snared by apparent attention, drugs, and alcohol. His responsible side is fighting with the irresponsible side, though--there is hope for him, if not for the others.

Okay, Frodo, find him and eke the sense in him out into the open.

Author Reply: Frodo will surly try that...just with what success?

Thanks for reading Larner! :)

Oh dear! Pippin has maneuvered (tricky word!) himself into a lot of trouble!

It would be so easy to be angry with him, if his reaction wasn't so understandable! He feels lonely! His parents and sisters are seemingly unable to understand him and Merry is just too busy with his studies to care about him. Or so he feels...

And so he finds himself some new "friends". What makes him feel happy for a time are in fact not his "friends", but the brandy and the little berries. I would call the latter "drugs", like those little colorful pills you can get everywhere.

I'm right glad that Merry AND Frodo are there to lead Pippin onto the right path again. It won't be easy, I'm afraid!

Tomorrow, I'll read the German chapters! It doesn't happen that often that I can read hobbit stories in my
mother tongue ;-)

Thank you, Golden!

No, it will not be an easy way...

Well maybe it will happen more often now, that you get to read Hobbit stories in German. I at least can promise you some more... *g*
