I feel the same way, littlemanpoet. I can't stand the last half of the Two Towers, and can barely get myself through the first book up to the point of Strider. I guess one reason is that I hate hobbits, another might be that the journey of the Ring is not too exciting, I love battle scenes more.

The Return of the King is better than the other two books in my opinion....

And Tolkien do start off boring which is the reason for many people I know to stop reading LOTR.
