Quick Review

This is a brief, engaging biography of Tolkien that jumps around his life, giving context for his works and insights into his life and motivations. There are richer, more exhaustive biographies, and I enjoyed those when I read them years ago, but this is a great introduction to the man and gives good context to anyone approaching his books for the first time or wanting to revisit them.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4 out of 5.

I got the last book I needed of #Tolkien's that was published in his lifetime! The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and now finally The Adventures of Tom Bombadil!

If you've not read it, it's a collection of #poetry in the #LotR universe. I do like to rile up other Tolkien fans that the #Silmarillion is a compilation of notes of questionable canonicity while this was very much intended to be published as-is (all in good humour, I love the Silmarillion as much as the next nerd).

Book cover reading:
'J.R.R. TOLKIEN
the adventures of
TOM
BOMBADIL

Edited by CHRISTINA SCULL & WAYNE G. HAMMOND
Illustrated by PAULINE BAYNES'

Cover shows Tom Bombadil reclining on a river bank, with many birds and fish

Another 1 hour long Lord of the Rings lore video? Is it Christmas? Well it almost is and here is the last part of Who is Elrond, covering the War of the Ring and the End of the Third Age. I hope you enjoy the new lore video:

I worked on this project (all1 3 parts) since August 2021 and it was really a massive project. I hope you enjoy the last part

There will also be 10:37 hours all-in-one version of it soon, with all 13 parts in one video.

Because of the Nine Hikers in LotR, the Stockholm Tolkien Society celebrates nine-year anniversaries. Next year is the 54th one. I haven't been an active member in a quarter century. But I've volunteered for the anniversary festivities as a dishwasher, table-top game instructor and book circle organiser.
