Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)

DRACULA was good, but The LOTR trilogy is the better here without a doubt.

Well, hold on there. I truly LOVE LOTR, but "Dracula" was one of my favorite high school "classic" reads before him and I have always loved the "Letter Element" he employed. This is a tough call. Stoker is an ACE!!

Understandable. I read LOTR decades before reading DRACULA in late 2013, so Tolkien has had a larger direct impact on my life.Originally Posted by Merlin1958

I hear ya. Much as I LOVE, Tolkien it is unfortunate that he comes up against, Stoker. Very different styles and subject matter, but almost equally as good.Understandable. I read LOTR decades before reading DRACULA in late 2013, so Tolkien has had a larger direct impact on my life.
