Ursula Le Guin has some good thoughts about pacing, especially re LOTR and the Jackson movies, in Wave in the Mind, I think, and IIRC her Steering the Craft does too (I haven't read it in a long while). Shirley Jackson's lectures on fiction writing have really good and detailed advice on sentence length and building suspense.
