The classic guide to the tongues of elves, dwarves, hobbits, and men--and an examination of the fourteen languages created by J.R.R. Tolkien and spoken throughout his beloved Middle-earth
J.R.R. Tolkien is known worldwide as writer of the fantasy classics The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, among many others. But he was a linguist first and a writer second, and in many ways his stories served as vessels for the many intricate languages he created and that appeared throughout his works.
This beautifully illustrated book will delight fans of Middle-earth with its deep dive into Tolkien-as-linguist, his languages, comprehensive guides to the stark runes and flowing Elvish script he created for writing them, and an English-to-Elvish dictionary for all of the words he invented. A must-have for every Tolkien library!

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
