I have to say that I enjoyed The Sword of Shanara, but that was it. Every book he wrote in that series afterwards had the exact same plot. BORING! Actually I agree with you Balgin. He did rip off Tolkien, but at the time I was really, really, really into Tolkien and was searching for something similar. Now I'm just really into Tolkien. I'm much older now.
