Before I read LotR I was a HP nut. I have noticed the similarites between the two but I think it was just coincidence. HP is a wonderful story and deserves applase. And LotR is even better and more complex. But comparing the two is like comparing the Rivendell and Lorien. They are kind of alike but have their own aspects and qualitys that make them great storys. Comparing them is not realy bad but it will put down the best points of the stories. And while we're on the subject HP is not some little child story. It has a great meaning and Rowling's writing is superb. Both HP and LotR are perfect books and would be even better if they worked together. In fact when me and my friends role play we love mixing LotR's charicters with HP charicters.Does anyone know what I'm talking about though?
