This is an auction for A GUIDE TO TOLKIEN by David Day.

Amazon.com reviews:

"I found this book to be very useful, especially when reading the Silmarillion as it provides beautiful illustrations and very precise information. For anyone reading the Silmarillion or any other of J.R.R. Tolkien's works I highly recommend using this as a guide book."

"FIVE STARS!!! A really beautiful book! I bought one in a shop fro my friend, and then really loved it so I bought one on here for myself! The drawings inside are beautiful too! I great buy for a Tolkien fan :)"

*This guide to Tolkien is comprehensive and gives a quick reference, whether you're watching the films, and a little confused, or reading the books and struggling with the pronunciation! Arranged in alphabetical order, it's quick and easy to use. If watching the films, you may find it difficult distinguishing the names of places and people, especially with the background noise of battle and the accent of the actors. This is where this guide is invaluable. Seeing the names written down distinguishes it from another similar sounding name, thus Leading to a better understanding of Tolkien's world, and even at times, an insight into the clever thinking behind Tolkien's ideas!. A must for any 'Lord of The Rings', or indeed, 'The Hobbit' lover like me."

"FIVE STARS! An amazing book, very good for any Lord of the rings fan! A brilliant buy."

"FIVE STARS!! Beautifully designed, with drawings and a map. I would recommend this to anyone who loves LOTR."
