Today, we celebrate the centenary of Christopher Tolkien - born on this day in 1924! Without his unparalleled literary achievement, we would have only a fraction of his father’s writings. Cheers to Christopher, the first Tolkien scholar!
Also, the @TolkienSociety has a great lineup of speakers at their free virtual event this weekend celebrating Christopher and his work! Register here:

The end credits song for War of the Rohirrim has dropped! I wasn't familiar with Paris Paloma before this, but I gotta say, her voice fits really well with the Rohan/Old English vibe. What do you think of the track?

Things are heating up for War of the Rohirrim! Two covers were just revealed for tie-in books - a visual companion and a coloring book. Also - there is a 3rd listing (no cover reveal yet) for an "Art of" book by Daniel Falconer of Wētā Workshop, who made some AMAZING books for the LOTR & Hobbit trilogies! Also - Chris Smith wrote the Weapons & Warfare book from LOTR and oversaw the new Expanded Letters of Tolkien book!

What do you think? Are these books you'l be picking up? Personally, I think Helm in his armor looks LEGIT!

Godspeed, Bernard Hill. Folks will be sharing memories of his various roles today, but for me, Théoden King stands alone - a standout performance in a film series full of standout performances.
May his family be comforted during this difficult time. ❤️
