I came to the conclusion that Lord of the Rings was, most probably, the best book that ever could be written, which put me in something of a quandary. I wanted to be a writer when I grew up. (That’s not true: I wanted to be a writer then.) And I wanted to write The Lord of the Rings. The problem was that it had already been written.
Neil Gaiman (x)
if neil gaiman seriously believes that lotr is the most perfect book that could ever be written (despite it being a trilogy) then i have been right all along in not bothering to read neil gaiman’s books
(via stayinbedgrowyourhair) I’ve read LotR and Neil Gaiman books and his are much better to me. LotR was rather sluggish and his are not (to me).(Source: magneticpie, via stayinbedgrowyourhair)
