I got busy today and almost forgot to recognize Tolkien’s birthday (just like last year)! We’ve been enjoying the products of Tolkien’s inventive mind around here for many years, and lately has been no exception. I’m planning to read the old/new Tolkien book, Children of Hurin, just as soon as I finish the book I’m working on now. And this book is on my TBR list.
Here are a few nice tributes to Professor Tolkien:
Fantasy Author L.B. Graham: “J.R.R. Tolkien is the fantasy writer that changed my life. I’d never encountered anything like Middle Earth before, and even as an avid reader, his work set my imagination on fire.”
Mental Multivitamin: “Have you, like Family M-mv, found yourself referring back to the text (over and over again) only to realize that as grand as Peter Jackson’s vision is (and it is, really; we do love it), the story is most fully realized as text?”
