Something of a strange creature of pure evil, stirs many imaginations rolling. And with the Legendary poetic epic "Beowulf" having a full translation to story would have many getting a little excited.
Excited knowing that the world of Elves, Men, Dwarfs and Ents will have a place in our hearts again.
And who better could translate and set in stone a mammoth tale of Old English? Gibberish to many, And have experience in the field of telling and making your imagination run wild? No one other than J.R.R Tolkien thats who.

Now it seems after all these years, a 1500+ Page Translation to story has been found of the Germanic Epic.
J.R.R. Tolkien mastered this Poem, studied it. He even wrote a book on the Poem called "The Monsters and the Critics". So it isn't surprising knowing that the tale had a place in his heart, especially knowing that he borrowed Races from the Book, incorporating them into The Lord of the Rings.

A Legal battle too has been raging, it seems the guy who found the pages was in a tussle with the Tolkien Estate, over claims that he wanted the pages published for a book.
Since the Films, People have been trying their best to cash in on writers works and with this, although being great as it is, is very much the same.

And so, the Tokien Estate relented. Before the end of the year they will market and publicise the Publication of the Latest J.R.R Tolkien publication: Beowulf. A title that I await with glee. I'll look forward delving into this new fantasy novel.

People are cashing in on a man who is dead yes, what else is there to happen?
People need to hear of such things. What good is a potential epic sitting collecting dust?
I can't complain that of it seeing a release, no.
And with me obtaining the precious First Edition on Hardback i'll be even happier.

That was found about two weeks, y'know. The Bodlian Library, I think.
