pickI debated between so-so & pick, but I did enjoy reading this. I would recommend finding a library copy, rather than buying, if you are a serious Tolkien fan interested in the development of his stories. The short story is an incomplete draft, but it clearly shows the origins of Tolkien's characters Turin & Huan. I also found the essays interesting.

Daisey Another fun fact I learned from Tolkien's essay on the Kalavela was that this collection of Finnish myth also provided inspiration for Longfellow in his writing style for Hiawatha. 6y
