What made you love the books so much? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

my reasons for being a Tolkien-fan are these:
- he has made a complete new world, fascinating and wonderful, in which there are things of unknown power, might or horror.

- how he descibes things in M-E and Valinor and all lands of which he tells stories. He takes so much time and space (in his books) to let you know how things look in ME.

- his writing-style.

Those are three reasons why I like tolkien, and of course the whole story-telling is great.

greetings, lathspell
