Awesome newd for Tolkein fans The great man himself is dead, but his work lives on. His son, Christopher Tolkein, has devoted much of his life to bringing his fathers copious unpublished material into coherent form and sharing it with his fans. Much of what has been produced so far has probably only been enjoyed by the most fervent Tolkein followers, being dense histories and prose - but now there is a new, more readable and friendly book to delve into! "The Children of Hurin", by Christopher Tolkein, and recently published by Houghton Mifflin, is a must for every Tolkein fans bookshelf. I can hardly wait to get a copy!
