Oh God yes. Tolkien was pretty terrible to get through. I quit reading Fellowship of the Rings so many times before I finally got to something that grabbed me (the whole Fellowship part, like over 100 pages into the book). The rest of the plotting was fun to carry me through, but the run on sentences were painful all the way through.
