Tom Sinclair No enemies had ever taken Ankh-Morpork. Well technically they had, quite often; the city welcomed free-spending barbarian invaders, but somehow the puzzled raiders found, after a few days, that they didn't own their horses any more, and within a couple of months they were just another minority group with its own graffiti and food shops. -- (Terry Pratchett, Eric)

Pratchett His books have a lot of sharp social commentary disguised as 'Monty Python meets Lord of the Rings'. Tom Sinclair Kids! Bringing about Armageddon can be dangerous. Do not attempt it in your home. -- (Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman, Good Omens)

Three rings for the elven-kings under the sky

Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone.

Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die

One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

One Ring to rule them all
One Ring to find them
One Ring to bring them all
and
in
the
darkness
bind
them
