      Isn't mimickry a form of flattery?by Anonymous

      November 13, 2006: By 10 pages in, I thought I was re-reading Tolkien. I'm sure there was more to the books than just a ripped off re-write of LotR, but I just couldn't get past the obvious similarities. While I would never tell anyone to NOT read a book, I would have to agree with most of the commentary made on this thread.

      August 07, 2006: It seems that Denis(who is a very good writer) wanted to tell his own stories in MiddleEarth. Tolkiens Middle earth. BUT he can't do that, so he basically rewrote the LORD OF THE RINGS, to re-create the world(well 90% of it) and then Continue on with his own stories. His other stories set in Mithgar are excellent. Dragon Doom, being a particular favorite.
