First, hi, I just joined, this is my first post.

I think one of my fav things about FGOH was its setting and the use of English place names. Its one of the best examples of Tolkien's desire to create a mythology for England and works really well.

Bit OT but I also loved Leaf by Niggle. One of the most truely beautiful short stories I've ever read.
