I enjoyed reading that Child of the 7th age, Thank you. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I have re read LoTR several times since first reading it in 72. I forget things, and I must admit to missing a lot of stuff the first time out cause I would skip through passages to find out "what happened" as quickly as possible. I have just read the Silmarillion and plan to reread it again, (to clarify it all) then go back and reread LoTR. A friend told me that rereading the LoTR after the Sil, was as if the light had been "turned on". So much more made sense with all the history in mind, particularly the verse and song, which I have just skimmed in the past. Anyhow, I reread it cause I love it! [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]
