My friends absolutely adore Harry Potter, and for some reason love Daniel Radcliffe...  To be perfectly honest, I can't see the appeal... |

Its complete money making shite.
How an earth they are comparing the Rowling creature to Tolkein is beyond me but unsurprising in todays climate of hype.
Tolkein created the whole genre using the old Norse Eddas & German sagas as a base & created a mythos that is as complete & almost real as anything subsequently written.And really just w framework for him exploring late Dark Age c800-c1000 early Medieval languages.
This hagling has merely copied ideas from other books like Le Guins A Wizard of Earthsea ,The Dark Is Rising & peddled it as her own badly written crap.
Amazing how popular it is.The most frightening thing is seeing middle aged adults reading this tripe which a school kid could have written.
