If you’re going to visit Middle Earth, then you need to visit Gondor.  I’m staying in a nice little apartment next to the ratcatcher.  I first read Lord of the Rings when I was in High School.  It was the book that everybody was reading.  It was kind of the Harry Potter of its day, I suppose.  I still love it.
