Geeks and Nerds rejoice! A new Tolkien book, the first since 1977, is being published. Started by Tolkien himself and finished by his son, this will definitely be a must read.

“The Associated Press reports that one of Tolkien’s earliest stories, written in 1917, Narn i Chîn Húrin, Sindarin for “The Lay of the Children of Húrin”, has been edited by his son into a completed work and will be released next spring. The book will include a new map by Christopher Tolkien and a jacket and color paintings by Alan Lee. “It has seemed to me for a long time that there was a good case for presenting my father’s long version of the legend of the Children of Húrin as an independent work, between its own covers,” Christopher Tolkien said in a statement, published in a Harper Collins and Houghton Mifflin press-release, since the new book will be published by them in England and the United States respectively.”
