from the article:
"...it is remarkable how frequently he will draw back from the implications of the subject matter"

of course if the Lord of the Rings had been written by the estimable Mr. Moorcock we would not have this problem, Mr. Moorcock will never draw back from these implications which are, to summarize, that the eternal hero Frodo Baggins and his assistant to heroes Samwise Gamgee are in fact examples of two recurring archetypes throughout the history, not just of the earth, but of the whole MULTIVERSE!!

Mr. Baggins, who is irresistibly attractive to big-breasted human women, is unfortunately cursed to bear the ONE RING the name of which is iurtuq, or something suitably unpronounceable. Due to his attractiveness to big-breasted human women Mr. Baggins has an active romantic life but iurtug, the One Ring, has on numerous occasions with a malicious will caused these women to fall into the clutches of RingWraiths who then devour the mortal souls of these human women with the big’uns. This is very worrisome to Mr. Baggins and has left him, understandably, melancholic.

Despite his melancholic nature Mr. Baggins still presses on in the thirty-something books of the Lord of the Eldritch Rings series, with many adventures wherein he becomes made aware of his own nature as a heroic archetype, by meeting and interacting with similar melancholic incarnations of himself from various Universes, fighting against the local representatives of evil, and brooding on the many boobalicious babes they have lost through all the aeons of eternity. In several scenes written with Mr. Moorcock’s usual flair Mr. Baggins actually joins with various incarnations of himself to make an ultimate hero having something like twenty arms, ten heads, a bunch of really kick-ass weaponry and basically looking somewhat silly. Samwise Gamgee also interacts in a similar manner with various assistants to heroes across the MULTIVERSE.

The eventual goal of Mr. Baggins in this series is to meet the all-powerful Lord Sauron, a local incarnation of the Lord of Chaos known as Arioch, in single battle and kick his ass through the means of the One Ring which, ironically enough Arioch/Sauron gave to him at some point through the use of one of his avatars, named Gollum whom Mr. Baggins, shortly after receiving iurtug kills and feeds his soul, measly as it is, to a RingWraith!

Along the way, obsessed with vengeance against Sauron for the loss of many well-endowed females of the human species, Mr. Baggins is forced to sacrifice Samwise Gamgee to protect himself in an encounter with one of Lord Sauron’s RingWraith’s. This is in book 28, of the series, but Mr. Baggins meets with a Samwise Gamgee from an alternate universe in book 34 and together they go to fight Sauron. This meeting is especially bitter for Mr. Baggins as it forces him to reflect on how his inhuman lust for vengeance has caused him to betray his friend. But in the end Mr. Baggins triumphs, though it costs him his own life and soul in the process he manages to defeat Sauron and feed Sauron's soul to a RingWraith, just as throughout the MULTIVERSE the other incarnations of Mr. Baggins manage to defeat their local incarnations of Arioch.

It should also be noted that if these books had been written by Mr. Moorcock, we would have surpassing brilliant illustrations of the muscular Mr. Baggins, wearing a chainmail loincloth with an impressive bulge, in combat with various unearthly beasts to hang on our walls.

Finally I must apologise if my post seems barely literate, I thought it a good bit of post-modernism to affect the voice of Mr. Moorcock here.
