Most books on Tolkien are organized thematically. This one is arranged episodically, following the history of Middle-earth from its creation in the first chapter of The Silmarillion to the hints about the Fourth Age in the Appendices of The Return of the King. It offers a reader’s commentary on those episodes, bringing out the artistry behind their composition and the meaning behind their narrative to enhance the reader’s experience of the story as it unfolds. The meaning that emerges is a profoundly Christian meditation on the advice of Ulmo: 'Love not too well the work of thine own hands.' The conflict between those who love the work of their own hands appropriately and those who love it idolatrously forms the history of Tolkien’s world-and of ours.

  • An Account of Things Accomplished
    Donald T. Williams
    Why Luke? Luke was not, like the other three Evangelists, an eyewitness. He gives us, not a personal memoir, but a researched study that encompasses input from many eyewitnesses, undoubtedly interviewed as he met them on his travels with the Apostle Paul. We go to Matthew for Jewish background, Mark for narrative punch, John for pondered profundity. Luke gives us a unified synt...
  • Answers from Aslan

    It has been eighty years since C.S. Lewis wrote his major apologetics works. They came out during World War II. The world has changed radically since then. His arguments are still valid, but that validity might not be as obvious as it used to be. It is not enough then for us just to parrot Lewis. We need to understand him so we can emulate him. We need to know his arguments and...
