Your rank: Bilbo Baggins
Well done - You are a very smart one indeed (15 of 23 correct)

I expected to do better since I just started Return of the King the other day. Apparently I need to pay better attention to the details.

Gandalf the White - 21 out of 23

Only ones I got wrong were what type of chain Gloin was wearing and which Ents are the tallest. Considering I've read the books multiple times, I wasn't expecting any less :).

Bah.

11/23, Gaffer Gamgee.

Apparently I enjoyed the books, but committed little to memory. Time to read them again anyway.
