I am proud to say that I never bought the damned thing, only read a friend's copy at his insistence. It is really obvious, mostly, and the prologue is really dreadful. And, in thirty-five years, can't they get some new cover art? Sheesh.

We bought the new glossy shiny edition after the film came out...hardback+all...my dad is a real LOTR nut, y'know, the kind who's read all the books and committed details to his heart.
He's dyslexic and wouldn't be caught reading any form of non-fivtion otherwise ^ ^

You didn't laugh at "'twas worse than I feared, 'twas water on the brain, forced I was, to amputate!"? You may be a bigger crumudgeon than me

I liked Bored of the Rings. Not loved, but liked. The names were a good piece of wit. Especially Bilbo's one [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I liked Bored of the Rings. They also put out a decent parody of Dune called Doon. I'm sure LoA would like it. Instead of the spice, it has pools of beer. And instead of sand worms it had giant pretzels.
