If you like LOTR inspired high fantasy, sure.  The first book is probably one of the weakest in the series, though.  The second book is better on nearly every level and it begins to break from the LOTR formula after that.

There are better written and more imaginative works out there, though.  Just depends on what you're after.

Recommendations?

I liked reading LOTR, and I had a great time with a lot of Robin Hobb fantasy as well.

Patrik Rothfuss - Kingkiller Chronicles

Richelle Mead - Georgina Kincaid 
Richelle Mead - Age of X
Kim Harrison - The Hollows
Rachel Caine - Weather warden
George RR Martin - Song of Ice and Fire
Jim Butcher - The Dresden Files

 

All these books series are worth a read, if you havnt yet.

Every one of them, is a 9 out of 10, or a 10/10.
