This book changed my lifeThe Goat writes, "Some books have made a huge impact on my life." It's true. It wasn't until the b3ta mods read the Flashman novels that we changed from mild-mannered computer operators into heavily-whiskered copulators, poltroons and all round bastards in a well-known cavalry regiment.
What books have changed the way you think, the way you live, or just gave you a rollicking good time?
Friendly hint: A bit of background rather than just a bunch of book titles would make your stories more readable

JRR was a cunning linguist......and I think thaat's the real reason he wrote anything to do with Middle Earth. After all, it's one thing to invent a language (e.g. Esperanto), but you've got to persuade others to use it.
However, if you invent a world - you can populate it with as many languages as you like. No-one was forced to learn Elvish, but there are a damn good number who have chosen to.
