I have read that sequel (first 2 books, there are several i guess). It was horrible. Hobbit specialised on throwing knives, brrr. And folks are busying themselves searching for Nazgul rings, supposed to be buried were Nazgul hit the earth after Sauron's death.
But whatever fantasies Nick Perumov (the author) put in the thing, the mostly diversed from Tolkien is the spirit of it - it's completely dualistic.
To say it shortly, the thing is just a low rate battle fantasy, based on Tolkien and using same stage as a PR trick
and I prefer to call it 'thing', not novel
edit: Akhtene, I surely fall under those "some" who scold it, eh [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
