Wow, I can't believe that the Publisher's didn't check the factual synopsis of the story either. The author should be tarred and feathered, and sent to Mediocre Writer's Hell promptly.

Indeed. I'm willing to wager it was even a fan who noticed this booboo in the first place.

well, well, we would never amount to much anyway eh? That's it, I have had it with these non-tolkienites.... Tolkien-fans from all lands!!! Unite against this ignorance!!! Let us wipe them of the face of Middle-Earth!!

Oh look, I'm overreacting again, must be time for my medicine....

Very Funny. I would not be surprised if they are not sued for plagerism (sp?). At least here in the States.

The Tolkien Sarcasm Page is a lot of fun. If they have not done so yet, I would like to see a critique of LOTR: FOTR.

Sincerly,
