There is sufficient attention to Creator/JRRTolkien canon to make this series reasonably consistent and entertaining, but it is also widely berated for both being very similar (The lead characters are two dwarves and a hobbit, the MacGuffin is a set of mysteriously surviving Nazgûl rings) and avoiding StatusQuoIsGod by featuring warlike hobbits, TokenHeroicOrc and, ultimately, the fact that the writer had the audacity to [[spoiler:blow up the entire planet and evacuate the survivors into his own spin-off world of Hjorvard.]] Let's leave it at that.
