—Josh Olds, Life Is Story
“While this book is a treasure trove for Tolkien fans…it is a bite-size insight into one of history’s most fascinating authors and intellectuals: a polymath who taught university courses, created multiple languages, wrote children's literature, and always graciously corresponded with his fans.”
—Joel Furches (Goodreads Review)
