A Fantasy book like Lord of the Rings?

A Fantasy book like Lord of the Rings? Every time I see a book labeled as “for fans of Lord of the Rings,“ I cry a little on the inside. LOTR has been so key to the Fantasy genre (quite justifiably) that nearly every Fantasy fan has read it and every Fantasy book is influenced by it in some way. BE MORE SPECIFIC, I AM BEGGING YOU. Also, it is JRR Tolkien’s birthday, so be sure to pour one out for the Professor today!
