Champion
Many of today’s top names in fantasy acknowledge
J.R.R. Tolkien as the author whose work inspired them to create
their own epics. But which writers influenced Tolkien himself? In a
collection destined to become a classic in its own right,
internationally recognized Tolkien expert Douglas A. Anderson,
editor of The Annotated Hobbit, has gathered the fiction of the
many gifted authors who sparked Tolkien’s imagination. Included are
Andrew Lang’s romantic swashbuckler “The Story of Sigurd,” which
features magic rings and a ferocious dragon; an excerpt from E. A.
Wyke-Smith’s The Marvelous Land of Snergs, about creatures who were
precursors to Tolkien’s hobbits; and a never-before-published gem
by David Lindsay, author of A Voyage to Arcturus, a novel that
Tolkien praised highly both as a thriller and as a work of
philosophy, religion, and morality.
In stories packed with magical journeys,
conflicted heroes, and terrible beasts, this extraordinary volume
is one that no fan of fantasy or Tolkien should be without. These
tales just might inspire a new generation of creative
writers.
