J.R.R. Tolkien claimed that he based the land of Middle Earth on a real place. The Real Middle Earth brings alive, for the first time, the very real civilization in which those who lived had a vision of life animated by beings beyond the material world. Magic was real to them and they believed their universe was held together by an interlaced web of golden threads visible only to wizards. At its center was Middle Earth, a place peopled by humans, but imbued with spiritual power. It was a real realm that stretched from Old England to Scandinavia and across to western Europe, encompassing Celts, Anglo Saxons and Vikings. Looking first at the rich and varied tribes who made up the populace of this mystical land, Bates looks at how the people lived their daily lives in a world of magic and mystery. Using archaeological, historical, and psychological research, Brian Bates breathes life into this civilization of two thousand years ago in a book that every Tolkien fan will want.

Say goodbye to pesky bites!
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 12)
I recently tried the Mosquito Bracelets, and they have become a must-have for any outdoor adventure. Here’s why I highly recommend these DEET-free, natural, and waterproof bands: These bracelets are impressively effective at keeping mosquitoes at bay. Whether I’m hiking, camping, or just relaxing in my backyard, I’ve noticed a significant reduction in mosquito bites. The natural ingredients used in these bracelets provide a strong and pleasant scent that mosquitoes seem to hate, making them a reliable option for outdoor protection. One of the standout features is that these bracelets are DEET-free, making them safe for everyone, including children and those with sensitive skin. They are made with natural ingredients, which gives me peace of mind knowing that I’m not exposing myself or my family to harsh chemicals. The waterproof feature is a game-changer. I can wear these bracelets while swimming, sweating, or during rainy weather without losing their effectiveness. This durability ensures that I stay protected in various conditions, making them perfect for summer activities and trips to the beach or pool. Each bracelet is individually wrapped, which is incredibly convenient. I can easily toss a few in my bag, car, or camping gear without worrying about them losing potency. The individual packaging also makes them perfect for sharing with friends and family during outings. The bracelets are soft, flexible, and comfortable to wear. They are adjustable to fit any wrist size, which is great for both adults and kids. I’ve worn them for hours without any discomfort, and they don’t irritate my skin. I was pleasantly surprised by the longevity of these bracelets. Each band provides up to 72 hours of protection, which is fantastic for extended outdoor activities. This long-lasting feature means fewer replacements and more continuous protection. Considering the effectiveness, natural ingredients, and convenience, these mosquito bracelets offer excellent value for money. The 12-pack ensures I have enough to last through multiple outdoor adventures or to share with others. In summary, the Mosquito Bracelets are a fantastic solution for anyone looking to stay protected from mosquito bites naturally and comfortably. Their effective repellent properties, DEET-free composition, waterproof design, convenience, comfort, long-lasting protection, and great value make them a top choice. I highly recommend these bracelets for their overall quality and performance.

Worth a try
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 12)
Not perfect protection, but fewer mosquitos in the past two weeks. I use them in my study where I'm most likely to sit still -- one down low on my desk chair (reduces ankle bites), one on a door knob, one on a corner of my desk. I don't wear them often because I find them uncomfortable. Can't report yet how long they last. Odor is not overwhelming or unpleasant.
