- I, too, suspect these are not by Wenzel. They sound like the ones based on
- the Bakshi movie. These were translated into Norwegian, so it's quite
- possible they exist in Finnish as well. They are (IMHO) quite awful, and not
- at all comparable to Wenzel's TH, which (IMHO again) is a very decent work.
- Is it true he's working on LotR?
