In theory, that is an accurate assumption the story of Beren and Lúthien is told often – hinted at throughout The Lord of the Rings and expanded upon in The Silmarillion and Unfinished Tales, as well as in The Book of Lost Tales Part II and The Lays of Beleriand. I won’t bore you with the extent of my Tolkien library, suffice to say that it is extensive and absurd.īut even I was taken aback when I heard that they would be publishing Beren and Lúthien, for surely that story had already been told, yes? Ever since the release of The Fellowship of the Ring in cinemas back in 2001, which was immediately followed by a week-long plunge through The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, I have been an avid and obsessive fan of Tolkien. One of the great joys of my life is reading anything (and everything) by (and about) J.R.R.
