The fact that he is an awesome story teller who mixes all of the elements in perfect fashion to create perfect fantasy is why all my friends and I Love Tolkien.
These books were written a Long time ago, but most of the issues that it deals with are relevant in life today. It involves jealousy, love, pain, suffering, strife, greed and numerous other elements that we find ourselves dealing with today. And when all that pain and suffering weighs you down, there's always Pippin to give you that warm, fuzzy feeling inside.
My question would have to be~
Why in the world would you not like Tolkien?
