Re: Is WoT a long winded copy of LOTR?

One thing I have considered is that this discussions will perhaps lead to comparing each book I read, when previously I didn't. I am not going to do start doing that, for I feel that it might take the enjoyment out of the story.
That was the only book that I ever tried to read by this author and I could not finish the book. Comparions to LoTR aside I thought the story was poor the writing I think pretty much anyone could do as good and I have a very hard time to see how Terry Brooks ever managed to be published. Maybe he paid the publisher enough? As you can probably tell I didn't like it and I won't be looking for anything else by this author...ever.
