JRR Tolkien by Mark Horne is another biography in the Christian Encounter Series. This is a short, "introduction" type biography of J.R.R. Tolkien. It's only about 160 pages and reads quickly, as the subject itself is fascinating. So fascinating that I often was hoping to read more.
If you don't know much about Tolkien, this biography should satisfy you but if you are a LOTR lover, you might wish to choose another biography to read, not because this one was "bad" but because I'm sure there is so much more a longer, more detailed biography would cover.
Still, this short biography is worth reading and will provide you with even more reasons to love Tolkien and want to read (or re-read) his stories!
