The two types of LotR fans - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

There isn't really one or the other...world or story fans I mean. The silmarillion, while a history, is also a collection of stories. It is all told in story form. If I had to make a distinction, I would say that there is those who love the story of the characters, and those who love the story of all of middle earth, or if you want to call it something more historcaly accurate, like Arda :-)
