      XPost: rec.arts.books.tolkien, alt.fan.tolkien, rec.arts.books       From: hayesstw@telkomsa.net              March 25th is Tolkien Reading Day! I have just hit the halfway point       of The Silmarillion–my first time successfully reading it all the way       through. Often I would start, enjoy the mythic material, then as the       legendary stories of the races of Middle Earth begin, get lost. Other       times I would just cherrypick the cooler stories. But I am motoring       through, now. I am about one-third of the way through Tolkien’s       Letters–reading it as an occasional book (about a page a day). And I       am reading Return of the King to my son. We are in the sixth book, and       Sam has just determined to rescue Frodo from the midst of the orc       horde.              In honour of Tolkien Reading Day, I thought I would update the       catalogue the Tolkien posts featured here on A Pilgrim in Narnia. I       hope you enjoy the great selection of guest bloggers and feature       posts, filling out your Tolkien reading and inspiring you to widen and       deepen your Tolkienaphilia.              See it all here:              https://t.co/ZdIinja0W2                     --       Steve Hayes       Web: http://www.khanya.org.za/stevesig.htm        http://www.goodreads.com/hayesstw        http://www.bookcrossing.com/mybookshelf/Methodius              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
