While we officially began our hiatus this week, we’re not just taking a break — we’re working on getting Season 3 ready to go! We want to let you know what you should be reading to get ready for the start of the next season — a little summer homework, if you will.
These first three are all by Tom Shippey, who joins us for a wonderful conversation to start Season 3:
- The Road to Middle-earth (US link: https://amzn.to/2L8LbYb, UK link: https://amzn.to/2N6JlHR)
- J. R. R. Tolkien: Author of the Century (US link: https://amzn.to/2L8M5Uz, UK link: https://amzn.to/2N1Mnxg)
- Laughing Shall I Die (US link: https://amzn.to/2uaAVYZ, UK link: https://amzn.to/2um0VzR)
You’ll also want to read “Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics” by Professor Tolkien himself (US link: https://amzn.to/2m5THML, UK link: https://amzn.to/2JbDNK9)
And for those of you who enjoyed our (now-fixed!) interview with Verlyn Flieger last week, be sure to check out Splintered Light (US link: https://amzn.to/2JblMva, UK link: https://amzn.to/2L1YtG1).
Links to dozens of wonderful Tolkien books are available on our Official Library page. We thank you for using our affiliate links to help keep the ale flowing at The Prancing Pony!
