My latest Tolkien Gleanings ‘zine is now available. This is the fourth issue, a free 64-page PDF magazine for scholars of the life and works of Tolkien. May also be of interest to collectors, artists, and in this instance to historians of Edwardian Birmingham.

It has articles, artwork, a book review, vintage pictures, and extensive notes on new Tolkien items of interest which I found from April to May 2023. Basically, it does for Tolkien what I also do for Lovecraft, and as such I also make a number of new discoveries. Not least on the name “Anduin”, in this issue.

Designed for easy reading on a larger digital tablet, such as the Kindle Fire 10″.

Available on Gumroad (no sign-up needed, donations welcome) or on Archive.org.

Contributions, especially reviews of less-known non-fiction books, are welcomed for future issues.
