i sure am envious at most of you who had the opportunity to experience tolkien years and years ago. Female, 23. Saw Bakshi's versions when I was a kid. Was traumatized, what with those blood red skies and Orc heads with white-studded eyes! didn't understand a thing! Started reading october of last year. completely hooked. finished them all. I need Unfinished Tales nad 10 of the 12 'history' books. Regretting for not having started so much sooner. Fearful that most of you wud be Tolkien snobs who would be looking down on creatures like me. For you are the enlightened ones, and the path is not too clear. Give me hope .
