The Rings Of Power continues to substitute good storytelling with an endless, inane parade of callbacks to Lord of the Rings.

I liked the hobbit but it was the first one I read and maybe the first fantasy I had read.

    For me that was the first wheel of time book. First ones definitely stay with you. For me the Hobbit seemed lackluster, finished it in one evening and it felt too basic

    oh man starting with wheel of time im not surprised you found the hobbit lackluster. surprised you liked lord of the rings with that as a start. thing is that it would have never existed without much of what came before.

    LotR was good, had depth. Hobbit? That was a novel in readers digest. 😅
