Heh...look, I read "The Hobbit" when I was like nine, loved the hell out of it, tried the "Ring" stuff about a year later and it all just made me so mad...someone would come across a dragon, and then the next thirty pages would be about the dragon's family, a song about the dragon, what's dragons like to eat, what the dragon wants to be when he grows up, the dragon's politcal leanings, what side of the bed the dragon got up on that morning, blah-blah-blaaaaaaah...again, not my thing...
In fact, outside of the whole "Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy" series, I really am apt to dislike most fantasy/sci-fi, book or film...yet I love comic books...go figure...
