Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (1-36 series + annual) Complete
The presence of halflings, elves, dwarves, orcs, dragons and other fantasy creatures makes it possible to compare the world of "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons" with the works of JRR Tolkien, although Gygax argued that the influence of "The Lord of the Rings" was minimal, and the use of elements of the trilogy - marketing course. On the basis of the plot of the rules republished in 1977 was influenced by the work of such visionaries as Robert Howard, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Michael Moorcock, Roger Zelazny, Poul Anderson, Lyon Sprague de Camp, Abraham Merritt, and others.
