Title: Second only to LOTR
Review: It does not matter whether you're into fantasy or not, this is a must read. The first 1/3rd of the book can turn off even LOTR fans, because it is filled with too many names and places. But, work on the book. The rest of the book is one of the best reads ever. Like so many other reviewes say, THIS IS NOT A COLLECTION OF SHORT STORIES. This is a story about elves and men and their wars with Morgoth (Sauron's boss). The writing is top notch. This is a great fantasy and literature at the same time. If you're sick of G.R.R. Martin and Robert jordan and looking for something original, read the old master JRR. This is an undeniable masterpiece. I'm not one of those ringnuts, but after this book, I might become one :)
