Excellent. I have the Book of Lost Tales and Unfinished Tales, which have some very good things in them. These are part of the Works of Tolkien that Christopher T. has edited. And I think I have all Tolkien's minor works, including the Father Christmas tales.

I have all those and several other Tolkein books. Please tell me how to understand the wonderful adventures he has in them. I get so lost trying to read through them and get about 100 pages in and then have to go into rehab for two weeks to recover. I have read the trilogy three times and still do not completely understand it.

Tolkein was a master. I wish there were more like him.
