Tolkien: Man and Myth

A book by Joseph Pearce, and an extremely interesting book indeed. It deals a good deal with Tolkien, his faith, and, of especial interest to me, his Catholic/Christian view on mythology. A spectacular book, which I am immensely enjoying, and which I would recommend to anyone interested in Tolkien and/or his world (unless they can't stand stuff dealing with Christianity, as there is a good deal of it in this). Tremendously good book.
