hey, i was wondering waht was you're favourite tolkien book. i couldn't put them all up there but i put his most famous work's on there. my fave would have to be LOTR becusae its LOTR. its an epic story. is my overall fave book ever, with the silmarilian coming secong and the hobbit as third. i just love the LOTR it's got such a deep stroyline. it has so many differnt factor's that make it the winner. it's got adventure, action, comedy and romance. i know this is going to sound really cheesy but there are parts that can make you cry and some that make you laugh to youreself aloud and i think it's great when a book does that to you. you feel that you know these charecter's so well, and you feel sad when they are sad, and when they are happy, you feel the same. not many book's can do this, that why i class it as being so special. the silmarilian comes second because rather than being a stroy it's a history of middle-earth and is about the god's and people of middle-earth. also the hobbit come third as it is not on such a large scale as LOTR or the silmarilian and is only a short story. it does not go into as much depth as the other's therfore you do not love the charecter's as much.

I'd have to say the Silmarillion - because it's fascinating.

Well I finally chose. I really like all of Tolkien's works, but I picked The Hobbit as my favourite. The Hobbit is the one that started it all. If not for The Hobbit there would be no LotR or Middle-earth. The Sil is such a difficult book to read (although I love it too) that I don't think Middle-earth would have become all that popular with just it. Just some of my thoughts and opinions. ![:)](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v347/Hannah22/Fourm/smiley.gif) I love them ALL.

I chose LOTR, but it was hard to decide between that and the Hobbit.

The Hobbit is what made my Christmas in '03 so great. I got it as a present and started reading it after lunch and couldn't stop. Being a slow and careful reader, i didn't finish it until the next day.
It was the first LOTR I read. All the books are easily read.

Or would someone care to explain them a bit. ![;)](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v347/Hannah22/Fourm/wink.gif)

Not to sound rude but...please readover your posts before hitting submit ![:)](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v347/Hannah22/Fourm/smiley.gif) the silmarilian = The Silmarillion unfinnished tales = Unfinished Tales father giles of ham = Farmer Giles of Ham I'll be quiet about all the other errors in your post. ![:)](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v347/Hannah22/Fourm/smiley.gif) Also I'd suggest adding the History of Middle-Earth series to the poll. I would have to say my favorite is the Silm so far, but I have yet to finish all the HoME volumes.

Have to say the Sil. I find that book very facinating. Sure lotr has more plot, but I just really like the Silmarilion. ![:)](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v347/Hannah22/Fourm/smiley.gif)
