It's funny, I used to feel that he was super out of place, but on a reread I liked his part of the book. It made it seem like there were bigger things in the world, and really separated out for me the different "layers" that the story was operating on. And the idea that you have beings and spirits who are just not interfering, for various reasons.

I like it too. The idea that there's something mysterious and unknowable right on the very borders of the Shire segues very well into the vast history of Middle-earth. Also you get to see a lot of very cool stuff through his eyes. I like the little room when the hobbits sleep as well - it seems such a comfortable place to spend a couple of nights.

He and Goldberry come into "The Adventures of Tom Bombadil" too (duh) so it's not as if he has no other interaction with the story and the Shire.

I'm so glad you said this so that I don't have to try to put it into words myself. Couldn't agree more.
