Blackbird writes: Please pass along some info about Unsung Heroes of The Lord of the Rings: From the Page to the Screen, by Lynnette R. Porter. It’ll be published in late March by Greenwoord Press/Praeger. This is the book for anyone who’s a fan of Merry, Pippin, Eowyn, Galadriel, Arwen, Legolas, or Gimli. They’re the “unsung heroes” discussed in great detail, in both Tolkien’s work and Peter Jackson’s adaptation. The book also describes fandom’s role in LotR’s continuing popularity, as well as the need for Tolkien’s heroic characters in a modern world. The book presents an in-depth look at some of our favorite characters who often are not featured in other critical works. [More]
