In the fantasy world where i come from there is no bigger debate than this one. Tolkein vs Herbert.

LOTR written by tolkein, hated byhis drinkin buddy C.S Lewis, who is quoted to say " not another bloody Elf Story"
Supposed visionary , even though Lweis wrote about it all before him.

Frank Herbert, created a whole new universe, literally. I means of space travel by folding space which is actually one way we could be traveling in the future. And I new clean (and highly addictive) energy source that only comes from one planet, Dune.

Paul Atredis vs a 3 ft monkey? Hmmm.....Smile

What do you guys think?
