    Best spaceship?

    So many to choose from... but I'd say: Film: 'Millenium Falcon' TV: 'Thunderbird 2' (not sure if it's technically a "space"ship but I seem to remember an episode when it did go into space to rescue Thunderbird 3?!.) and 'X-Bomber' from 'Star Fleet'! (anyone remember that series?) ;)

    Would you rate Tolkien as a writer?

    There's a Tolkien expert on a documentary that comes with one of the extended Lord Of The Rings DVDs and he says that LOTR would never get published in its existing form nowadays because of the length of certain 'slower' sections without being edited down!.. However I still think Tolkiens...

    The Children of Hurin

    I literally just finished reading 'Turin' in The Silmarillion last night. One of the highlights of the book, but would love to have an 'expanded' version of the story so this sounds really interesting...
