I never saw Lord Of The Rings as a particularly special book. I've always enjoyed fantasy, particularly faery stories and tales such as the Brothers Grimm. Lotr influenced me a little, but probably only because it highlighted similarities or influences from other fantasy, especially mythological stories.
