Depuis sa publication en 1954-1955, le récit des aventures de Frodo et de ses compagnons, traversant la Terre du Milieu au péril de leur vie pour détruire l'Anneau forgé par Sauron, a enchanté des dizaines de millions de lecteurs, de tous les âges. Chef-d'œuvre de la fantasy, découverte d'un monde imaginaire, de sa géographie, de son histoire et de ses langues, mais aussi réflexion sur le pouvoir et la mort, Le Seigneur des Anneaux est sans équivalent par sa puissance d'évocation, son souffle et son ampleur. Cette nouvelle traduction prend en compte la dernière version du texte anglais, les indications laissées par Tolkien à l'intention des traducteurs et les découvertes permises par les publications posthumes proposées par Christopher Tolkien. Ce volume contient 18 illustrations d'Alan Lee, entièrement re-numérisées, d'une qualité inégalée, ainsi que deux cartes (en couleur) de la Terre du Milieu et du Comté.

I am saddened today by this fact – I remember the images in my mind from my reading of the first half without the film influencing my imagination. I also …

In 1980 Heinlein published a novel called The Number of the Beast. It involved parallel universes, The World as Fiction, and dragged in Lazarus Long, as Heinlein seemed to do in most of his later books. While parts of it were fun, it was also confusing and disjointed in my opinion. I will read any Heinlein for the writing alone, so I am a fan (in fact, I was for a time the webmaster for The Heinlein Society), but I can see that some of his stuff is better than others. So when I heard there was an alternate version of this novel, I had to check it out. And The Pursuit of the Pankera keeps the same basic setting and has the same beginning as The Number of the Beast, but I think it is much better. The plot is a lot more cohesive and the novel just flows …
