I am DEFINETLY doing to get flamed for this but I think that the film versions of LoTR are better then the books,
*gets behind bullet proof glass*
I mean I love reading fantasy books, I have read everything from thomas covenant to sword of truth, dragonlance, belgaid series, wheel of time, etc. (pretty much most well know fantasy books and many not-so known) and I love them all but as much as I respect J.R.R tollkien for revolutionizing the fantasy series and the LoTR series has become a staple for every fantasy reader, I personally believe that the books seemed almost too short, which is wierd i know, there are many different stories being told at once and many of the characters suffer because of that because everytime some development happens, it switches to a different narrative... But I think It was well suited for the movies kind of because this exact reason (not really getting my point across but I tried)
