Re: Book of the Century?

Mister Underhill, you took the quote directly from the tip of my tongue. As I was reading the discussion on whether the books were religious, I thought of the exact same quote (even though I remembered it as the preface to my copy of Sill) I personally don't believe Tolkien's books are religious.

Also, I don't think any of Tolkien's books themselves are the greatest book of the century, however, together they are the greatest literary genius of the century (2nd best literary genius of all time)
