My #TolkienTrewsday post will be a little art-heavy as I think this "Unexpected Party" seriously deserves a very special mention.
To me it is one of the most hilarious things #Tolkien has ever written and I absolutely love it.
It is a feast 🍺🤣🍢🍷

DRUM ROLL..... 🥁🥁🥁
meet the cutest tiny OLWË of Alqualondë of them all 💕💖🥰
Beautifully created by the most excellent @mgcoco_art 👏🎉🥳
Some of you may know that for many people in Germany my nickname is Olwe.
I am the Lord of the Teleri ⛵🌊
Marie Brennan's "Memoirs of Lady Trent" are an absolute delight and IN THE LABYRINTH OF DRAKES is a fitting continuation of her saga. And yes, you can tame them... Somehow. 😇
Lovely to see she and Suhail have found common ground, so to speak 🥰
I lost a bet - so I will be the Girabitt in the German Tolkien Days' Bouncy Castle.

"The Fellowship of the Ring travels south down the Anduin. Gollum follows them on a log." [TG]
Please note this led to one of the most hilarious #Tolkien references with @terryandrob / Terry Pratchett and the Witches.

I managed to squeeze in Marie Brennan's TROPIC OF SERPENTS as a last book for the year and it was just as entertaining a read as I had hoped after starting with the "Memoirs by Lady Trent."

The camp under Weathertop is raided at night, and Frodo is attacked by the Witch-king who attempts to hit his heart with a Morgul blade that will make him a wraith.
Frodo wears the Ring and is wounded on the shoulder.
