H/T to faithful reader Bonnie B. for this post

Fans of the Tolkien Universe will be happy to hear that a veritable treasure of unpublished writings from J.R.R. Tolkien will be released this coming June by HaperCollins. Titled “The Nature of Middle-Earth,” the new collection will explore themes frequently debated by Tolkien fans, including the immortality of Elves, Middle-Earth geography, Elvish languages, and reincarnation.

The book will be edited by Tolkien expert and NASA engineer Carl F. Hostetter.
