Tolkien

maybe my post here will be a little late and a little cold, but still- i gotta speak my mind.
it's the same as with the good horror shows - too much detail spoils the fun.
Tolkien's Middle Earth manages to scare and delight me by implying that there are so many 'creatures' and 'things' lurking in the shadows, that one cannot possibly know them all. Kinda different from our world, right? One of our famous poets once said that one shouldn't destroy the "flower colora" of the world, but keep its mysteries intact, instead of trying to unravel them.
