Flaws

I agree with you on that one, 100% Cazoz... I have always been completely dissatisfied with the part that Radagast plays. Saruman and Gandalf are both major players in the WOTR, and even though I realize that Radagast was sent by Yavanna specifically to keep track of the Kelvar and Olvar, it frustrates me that we don't see any sign of him ever doing anything to actively protect them, other than indirectly, by fiddling with Gandalf. And to stack on top of that, he wanders back off into the woods like Nebuchadnezzar or someting (can't you picture him eating grass?) and we never hear anything more about him.

The eagles don't bother me too much in LOTR, but I thought they got a little old in Silm. Whenever anyone's got a problem, down swoops an eagle and drags him off to safety, or warns him, or goes and tells Turgon he's there, or what have you.

And with all those eagles swooping around rescuing people, Turin can't get a break.
Acutally, I love the story of Turin, I think it's one of the best parts of the stories, but I just get so mad about the raw deal he got sometimes. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
