Keeper, I hope you don't mind; I copied your post & sent it to my husband. He does not understand what the fuss is all about regarding LOTR & in his words, 'doesn't care for the genre'. I've tried to explain the brilliance of J.R.R. Tolkien, but he just shakes his head. Perhaps hearing from someone else will make it clearer. He may never 'like the genre' but I can't believe someone as well read as my husband (and he is *very* well read), can't appreciate the genius behind these books.
