The poor man's LOTR indeed.
I mean, they can be a decent read, and people liking them aren't objectively wrong. But all that allegory.
Welcome, my friends, to the experience of pseudopagriphica at work. It was common in biblical texts for someone to write something and claim that it was actually written by someone else from an earlier period. So, for instance, naming the Gospels after the Apostles when at least one of them was, pretty likely, not actually written by the person whose name it bears. Often used to justify religious claims and so forth.
