Review of 'The Gospel According to Tolkien' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

I had assumed this would be a DNF at 5 or 10 percent but it really surprised me. While its field is fairly narrow this is some of the best Tolkien analysis I've ever read. I will be seeking out more by this author. The audiobook is well done despite numerous mispronunciations.
