Just found this forum!!!
Hello! I have read LOTR 7 times since I was 15(45 now). Just started on #8. Obviously, I enjoy it! I could not enjoy "The Silmarillion" as much...too bad Tolkien (the father) "had sailed to the West"! Christopher is a poor substitute in literary style. He just took his father's notes and wrote an essay! I think we would have all enjoyed it much more, if he just would have published his father's notes. I really do not think JRR intended to write "The Silmarillion". One other reason I think LOTR is so good is this...J.R.R. Tolkien actually believed it all happened!!!
