The most common complaint against Tolkien is that he is overly-descriptive. I tend to agree. It slows the pace of the novels too much. However, I wouldn't say it made him my least favourite author.
That ignominious title goes to Gary Gygax, who is a genius creator of games, but really should have been told a long time ago that he simply cannot write a decent novel for toffee. He truly is the epitome of useless, non-engaging, trivialising fantasy work.
