There's a part missing between the 2nd & 3rd paragraphs. Sorry this isn't an exact quote as I don't have my text with me, but Gandalf says something to the effect that "ever he clutched me and ever I... |

Phantom: I would love to see a copy of this tree. It sounds fantastic! Would you be willing to post it somewhere on this site? You would have a lot of grateful dead if you did... |

Galadriel was much older. In The Silm she is listed as the daughter of Finarfin (which would make her Fėanor's niece), granddaughter of Finwė, and born in Eldamar. Elrond was born in ME in Beleriand... |

The actual quote reads: "The strength of the ringbearer is failing. In his heart, Frodo begins to understand. The quest will claim his life. You know this. You have foreseen it. It is the risk we all... |

I bought BotR a number of years ago, but never managed to get around to reading it. Once I finish The Silm, I'll try to get back to it. If you like parody, I recommend "The Stupid Ring Parody" at... |

I've never been "geeky" as in math/science/computer overachievers, but I became a "bookworm" as soon as I learned to read. I've been a Tolkein fan and Star Trek fan since the 1960's. I've always been... |

I think Sam would probably have been able to resist the Ring's power longer than any of the others, but I don't think he would have been able to make it to Mt. Doom alone. I don't think any of the... |

I don't know about omitting any parts, as I can't imagine the story any differently. BUT, I would like some more details about Elladan & Elrohir. Tolkein gives very little information about them and... |

Aratlithiel -- My son (who is almost 31 now) never spent the amount of time on schoolwork that he did on other, less "academic" endeavors while in school either. School always bored him. It was... |

I just found this thread. It's so nice to find other vintage Tolkein fans. A friend first loaned me a copy of The Hobbit in 1966. I was 15. I stayed up all that night reading it. I was able to... |

I discovered this site a couple of days ago. It is so great to find a LotR site without having to fight my way through hordes of Nazgirls. I've been a Tolkein fan since a friend loaned me a copy of... |
