Hear, hear! Tolkien has done more for the world of fiction than any one has within the past couple of centuries.

I think that it if was not for Tolkien, then the world of Fiction would be alot duller.

The entire genre of fantasy would be non-existent. It impossible to find a fantasy writer who was not influenced by his writings. If it wasn’t for him, all I would be reading would be some SciFi books. Those are all well and good, but you need some swords and magic every so often.

Start it under this thread. Its a book. I dont know about all you, but i would most likely have not been into reading as much as i am if it was not for him. He made the world of fiction what it is and what it will always be.

I think if it wasnt for Tolkien, then fiction would be a hated genre by the public. therefore if Tolkien hadnt had written the books when he did, and instead wrote them much later on in time, then the LOTR series wouldnt have hit off and been so popular because the public wouldnt have liked it.
Not only is he a great story writer, he has impecable timing. ;D

If it wasnt for Tolien then elves would still be thought of as people in little hats making shoes.

Lol. I suppose that is true. But must of the creatures that he created gave most (me for one) a big picture of what fantasy cretures are like.

Yeah, fantasy creatures are anything, thats why they're called FANTASY creatures...;D
But i agree with you, Tolkien did give a good picture on what the fantasy world is like.

I don't know if i have mentioned this before, but i have a friend who gets modles of Tolkiens original drawings.
They are really god but i think they are rather expensive.
