i read this book because all my freinds where saying how cool it was, but really it was rubbish!!! i mean i like fantasy but this book was so derivitive!!! not to mention wordy... i think people just think its 'a classic' because its really old and really long, but actually it stinks!!! If you want good fantasy try the Warhammer books, those have elves and dwarves and stuff in but at least there not boring!!!!
I can't decide whether he's deliberately parodying other one-star LOTR reviews or not.
