From Harvard Lampoon in 1969, eventual founders of National Lampoon magazine gave us BORED OF THE RINGS, an epic parody of Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings." This '90s reprint edition will still delight anyone with a love of fantasy and a good sense of humor. Journey in for this and much, much more!
@jimbush@bookstodon I've yet to read this but I've always heard good things. Tbh, I'm guessing some of the character names, like this you mentioned, will drop cold on younger readers. Do Bromo Seltzer & Farah Slacks exist anymore? 😕
You're right, it's very much a thing of its time, in that "60s Mad Magazine poking at commercialism" way. But I think people in tune with that mindset will still enjoy it.
