"Puts to Shame Not a Few Published Works on Real-World Languages."--Mark Newbrook, Monash University, "An ambitious and helpful book. Entertaining and highly informative. Its potential audience is broad, and variably knowledgeable."-- Tolkien Studies, "David Salo … wrote A Gateway to Sindarin after his work on the films-it's the single best print resource for the language."- Voya Voice of Youth Advocate, "Certainly, Gateway is likely to appeal to the truly serious fan of Tolkien's languages."-- The Bulletin of The New York C.S.

    sindarin elvish book review

    This is an EXCELLENT book. I am familiar with the author's work. He is featured on the Lord of the rings trilogy extended edition background information. Definitely an expert on the subject, and a highly intelligent individual!!! This book while extensively covering the material is easy to understand. The history written in the beginning of the book might throw you if you're unfamiliar with LOTR. This will not stop you from being able to learn the language. Easy to understand with explanations and examples given for everything!!!!! A definite must read for any fan.
