"A Companion to J.R.R. Tolkienis an easy recommendation for any academic institution which offers a course in Tolkien studies, but would also do well on the shelves of an institution specialising in English literature." (Reference Reviews, 1 October 2015)

"I highly recommend this volume and count it as one of the most important works of collected scholarship on Tolkien to date." (Journal of Tolkien Research, 1 October 2015)
