The Lord of the Rings has long been one of my favorite fantasy sagas, since long before the films were released, in no small part because of the power and depth of the relationship between Frodo and Sam. Tolkien's original books pulled heavily from his experiences of life-or-death camaraderie from the trenches of World War One, where young British soldiers of all social classes found themselves bonding with men they would never have known otherwise.
