Quote:
Shire = Valley of Shadows (is that the correct name? I've only read the Danish translation, so I have to guess on the "real" names)
Mordor = Kingdom of Skulls
Being the Shannara fan that I am, I will help by correcting you. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Shire= Shady Vale
Mordor= Skull Kingdom

And here are some additions from the Sword of Shannara:
Aragorn= Balinor
Minas Tirith= Tyrsis
Gimli= Hendel
Legolas= a combination of Durin and Dayel
Merry= Menion Leah
Rivendell= Arborlon (though it's not exactly in the SoS)
Nazgul= Skull Bearers
Sauron= Warlock Lord
orcs= gnomes

Alright, the Sword of Shannara may be quite similar to LOTR, but I love that darn book (though not as much as LOTR). Plus, that's only one out 11 Shannara books. The rest are completely different from LOTR. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
