One thing is for sure, most fans of The Lord of The Rings, The Hobbit and The Da Vinci Code love the books as much or more than they love the movies. Here’s a book with a unique perspective, that they’ll really enjoy reading and owning.
“Readers looking for unpublished behind-the-scenes stories about world-famous rock bands and movie actors will certainly get their fair share of celebrity gossip. Get it!”—Kirkus Reviews
“Only someone who had been that close to the action, the many rehearsals, the Big-atures, and the gargantuan effort made by the Cast and Crew could have written such a revealing volume! What amazing stories Keith Stern has to reveal here!”—Clifford Broadway, The One Ring
“From one who knows”—Ian McKellen
For Entertainment Only by Keith Stern is about The Lord of the Rings trilogy (and more), but with a unique twist. It’s a behind-the-scenes exploration of how J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic was adapted into the landmark film series directed by Peter Jackson. Stern takes a closer look at the entire production process, from the early development stages to the cultural impact of the films once they were released. The book focuses not only on the making of the trilogy but also the stories of the people involved—actors, crew members, and even fans who shaped the legacy of The Lord of the Rings. Stern often blends interviews, anecdotes, and reflections, providing a rich layer of detail about the challenges, triumphs, and unexpected moments that marked the production of one of the most ambitious film projects in history.
In a way, it’s like a bridge between the fantasy world of Middle-earth and the real-world hustle that went into bringing it to life on the big screen. If you’re a fan of the trilogy, or know someone who is, this book offers a fascinating view of how the dream of translating Tolkien’s universe into film was realized, and how it resonated with audiences around the globe. It’s more than just a technical account; it also dives into the human element behind the monumental success of The Lord of the Rings. Get it here.
“The author’s stream-of-consciousness writing style offers an engaging read. Get it!”—Kirkus Reviews
