| I found the trick to reading LOTR is to imagine it being read to you by a bard or something - I think I remember reading that Tolkien purposefully wrote it to emulate the old myths and fables that would be told in history by bards and storytellers. |

| Oh I've read it, I just didn't enjoy it. Maybe I was lacking the necessary lute music in the background. |
