It makes me sad that someone who created an entirely new universe with amazing characters and folklore-inspired creatures and places loses to a Twilight erotic fanfic with a literary quality of a 5th grader's essay.
And I feel even sadder that Tolkien's work loses to both of them, as he was the founding father of fantasy and none of this would've been possible without him. Not only that, his works are also in my opinion the most worked-through with their own worlds, languages, lore, and so on.
Although I must admit, a very big part of Tolkien's universe was inspired by Scandinavian legends and mythology. Those guys were the real creativity masters.
