I was dreadfully upset too. I just couldn't believe they'd left me. Whoever said about them being really well known to you, it's right. They become your friends. As a reader you are part of their fellowship. Which is of course all part of Tolkien's writing skill. I felt numb and unable to read other stuff for a long while after I completed the three books. I feel kind of the same about the films too. I used to go to the movies almost weekly and now nothing interests me except my beloved Middle Earth.
