I really liked The Two Towers

I liked the books, but, then again, I also liked The Silmarillion. And yet, I can no bring myself to defend either, Keptain.

I would have defended it sooner but I pretty much avoid this base.

As for the books/movies, I purchased the monster one of all 3 books and took about 3 months to read it. I really liked the book. It wasn't overly mystical and i felt that Tolken added quite a bit of "human" quality to each character. He didn't push their good or bad faults on you. He let them play out.
There is a lot of time spent in the book where very little happens and keeping the names straight is tough too.

I really don't read much fiction but when I do I go big. I read The Stand in high school, and that was pretty cool.

I read Shogun of all fucking things and simply can't get through The LOTR books.
