About the authors

Jason Fisher has been reading and thinking about the works of J.R.R. Tolkien for more than thirty years. Today, he is an award-winning writer and independent scholar specializing in J.R.R. Tolkien, the Inklings, and Germanic philology. He is also the editor of Mythprint, the monthly publication of the Mythopoeic Society.
Some of his recent publications include entries in the J.R.R. Tolkien Encyclopedia: Scholarship and Critical Assessment (Routledge, 2006), as well as chapters in Tolkien and Modernity (Walking Tree, 2006), The Silmarillion: Thirty Years On (Walking Tree, 2007), Truths Breathed Through Silver: The Inklings' Moral and Mythopoeic Legacy (Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2007), Middle-earth Minstrel: Essays on Music in Tolkien (McFarland, 2010), and Middle-earth and Beyond: Essays on the World of J.R.R. Tolkien (Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2011). Jason has published scholarly essays and book reviews in Tolkien Studies, Mythlore, Beyond Bree, North Wind, Renaissance, and other publications.

Assuming such a thing about this book would be doing yourself a grave disservice. Loremasters and Libraries in Fantasy and Science Fiction contains 16 essays divided into four sections. All are fascinating, but I found the third section which focuses on J.R.R. Tolkien to be especially interesting, closely followed by the fourth section examining libraries in the works of Pratchett, Fforde, and Flint as well as in the Supernatural TV series.
A common theme throughout all of the essays in this collection is a deep love for books and an appreciation of the importance of libraries and archives in our lives. That is a love and appreciation that I share, and I believe that anyone who also shares it will find Loremasters and Libraries a wonderful read.
