What I miss by books like Harry Potter is the way how it COULD exist. No way there could be a world like that.
In the books of Tolkien it is different, and that's what I like about his books. You really can imagine how it could be to walk trough the Shire. I think that Tolkien spend a lot of time thinking about these things.
These backgrounds have made the books other then most fantasy books, in my oppinion, and that is what I like about the books, the way Tolkien lloked further then only the story.

A very interesting topic, I hope you understand my opinion about this object, I don't know really how to explain my words in good English.
