Sleepy Ranger. Does The Soddit make us appreciate The Hobbit all the more or do we leave with a distasteful mouthful of ridicule which cannot stand up to the original. Most Downers here are seeming to imply the latter I think.

I dunno. I kind of liked the book. Especially the sub notes and the chapter names. From what it seemed to me it just used the Hobbit as a base and except for perhaps the start the rest was very different. As for me parodies and the actual thing are placed in different categories. I enjoy parodies but the real book always remains a masterpiece. And I only read parodies if I like the original work.
