Quite frankly how can there NOT be similarites that people will pick up on from LOTR and HP , JK Rowling would have been inspired by Tolkien (as were probably most fantasty writers recently). Harry Potter is a paving way for younger kids up to LOTR , its like a stepping stone. A very cliche point I know , it's probably been said i know but i just had to make the point.
