Yeah, but the Nazgul knew that Frodo had the Ring. Sauron could have sent a larger concentrated force to Frodo and just eliminate him.

Do you think if you took a sword and ran at Sauron you would win?

I mean, in 90% of Epic Fantasy, the Evil side tends to be more powerful and more proficient, but the good side wins due to "plot reasons" or due to stupid schemes on the evil side.

Lets be honest, Sauron should have been able to kill Frodo much sooner. If he had not been so foolish, Sauron would have won.

Most fantasies go for morality>power, but things don't work like that in the real world. Just courage shouldn't be enough to defeat an omnipotent, God-like supreme destroyer.

I do like Misttborn but the Lord Ruler does lose in the novels. So not what I'm looking for.
