Rezensionen
"A Companion to J.R.R. Tolkienis an easy recommendation for any academic institution which offers a course in Tolkien studies, but would also do well on the shelves of an institution specialising in English literature."
"I highly recommend this volume and count it as one of the most important works of collected scholarship on Tolkien to date."
