Kimberlee, this is my incredibly belated comment to this post … YAY Lord of the Rings! It was weird to suddenly see this post because I started re-reading (for the … 11th time) “Fellowship of the Ring” last week on my way to work, and just read the same part that Dan quotes. I absolutely adore Fellowship!

Thank you, Dan…well written, and it makes me “eager” to go to my shelf and pick them up again. Now as to you blogging, is this akin to those who fell to the temptation to use the Palantir?
Trivia question: is LOTR technically considered a trilogy, or is it one book, or a series of 6 books?

I agree, Dan, choosing just one book is a form of torture from the miry pit–maybe this diabolical idea issued from the mines of Moria? In any event, you’ll notice I didn’t subject myself to this particular form of torture!

What a great great choice! I’ve been waiting for someone to choose Lord of the Rings — I’m glad you saved the best book for last. Which reminds me, it’s been a while since I delved into Tolkien, maybe it’s getting to be Middle Earth time for me again before too long…
