An original, unofficial quiz on The Lord of the Rings novel, including plot details. Peter Jackson’s films are mentioned only where a difference is stated. Scores concern these nine questions and their topics; they assign neither personality nor a degree of belonging to Tolkien’s world. The illustration is an original fan scene, not a page from the book.
