?jevind L?ngIn terms of literary merit, it doesn't approach the Bridge of Khazad Dum. In terms of ability to make me grin with enjoyment, I can't think of anything else I've read that tops it. So the British must have felt when the Americans poured in, in preparation for the Invasion. It has been a hard slog until now, and it will be a hard slog from now on, but the turning point has come. We are not alone, and we will win.

I've found that those parts seem shorter and less tedious with every rereading. But I still get the same thrill every time when I get to the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, my favorite chapter.
My favourite chapter ending is, of course, the one to "The Siege of Gondor".
