Ok, so I'm trying to read Sword of Shannara, but the introduction the plot was just too damn quick. Allanon arrives and kicks off the plot in, like, 12 pages. The book is almost 800. Tolkein at least danced around the issue for a little while before getting things going.

Honestly, it really turned me off of the book.

>>6241323

Given that Shannara series is by now like 15000 pages long, you have to consider that the """"real"""" plot hasn't even got started yet. Shannara is a really terrible series and Brooks is godawful writer in some ways, but I will say that he keeps things moving at a decent clip and clearly doesn't take any of his material so seriously that he feels the urge to dwell on it.

>>6241363

The Hobbit is a fat neckbeard. He lives in his family home on daddy's money, doing fuck nothing except eating smoking drinking and going for occasional walks. Look how threatened he is by the thought of intrepid, manly visitors entering his home and eating his precious sweets. If Bilbo were alive today he'd be posting on /r9k/ about tfw no short gf and how bitter he is about Thorin Oakendong getting all the play.
