JRR Tolkien’s son Christopher dies aged 95: Tributes are paid to ‘titan’ of Middle-earth who helped posthumously publish many of his father’s works
Christopher Tolkien, the son of author JRR Tolkien, has died at the age of 95
The WWII veteran became an Oxford don and guardian of his father’s works
As a boy his father told him tales of hobbits and he helped shape the characters
Writers and Tolkien scholars around the world have paid tribute to the ‘titan’

Thank you for The Silmaillion and the other works.
You spent your time on the earth well, sir.
