I am at present reading the history of Middle earth, The return of Shadow, and i was wondering, for those who have read or are reading them, do you think the book would have been as good with Bingo, Odo, Frodo and Marmaduke, instead of Frodo, Pippin, Sam and Merry? With Gandalf coming across them on the road in the shire instead of a dark rider? What is your opinion on Tolkiens origional manuscripts?
