Your Daily Tolkien Ping!

Coming from many sources, these articles cover many aspects of Tolkien and his literary works. If anyone would like for me to ping them directly when I post articles such as this let me know. Enjoy!

Nice posting, Mr. Second Secretary

REH and Tolkien wrote for different audiences, but both left a lasting impression on me. Had Howard not put a pistol to his head, he might have written something to compare to LOTR instead of pulp stories. But we'll just have to do with Conan, Kull, Bran Mak Morn, and Solomon Kane.

A fun read, thanks.

The Indian knew how to live without wants, to suffer without complaint, and to die singing.
--Tocqueville

The person lives most beautifully who does not reflect upon existence.
