A New Tolkien Novel
I just read that J.R.R. Tolkien’s son has finally finished a new Lord of the Rings novel. Only took him about 30 years to write it, I understand.
Just think of it. That’s quite a standard for anyone to hit. I can see why it might take 30 years to work something up to be up to the high standards that established Tolkien fans will have for this new novel, The Children of Húrin.
Being a science fiction fan, I’m very much looking forward to reading reviews when the book comes out in April. I am very much wondering how well the style will match up with the classic Tolkien stories.

Let me know what you think of it. I have read all of the Lord of the Rings books and saw the movies, so I am very interested in this.
