I thought my brother-in-law might be interested in this little tidbit of news.
According to the independant news in the UK, Christopher Tolkien will be publishing a new book entitled "The Children of Hurin" based on an incomplete book and volumes of detailed notes from his father J.R.R. Tolkien. The book slated to be published (in the UK at least) on April 17th. I'm curious about it. Silmarillion was a very interesting book published in 1977 (after J.R.R. Tolkien's 1971 death), but it was pretty difficult to read. It read more like a history book or an ancient text rather than a good novel.
According to all the news I can find on the book it sounds like it will be pretty good. I'll probably pick up a copy after I read some reviews from Amazon.com
