Binding: paperback

Section: Science-Fiction/Fantasy

In A Gateway to Sindarin, David Salo has created a volume that is a serious look at the entirely original, handmade "elvish" tongue of J. R. R. Tolkien: Sindarin. Salo covers the grammar, morphology, and history of the language. Supplemental material includes a vocabulary, Sindarin names, a glossary of terms, and an annotated list of works relevant to Sindarin. What emerges is an homage to Tolkien's scholarly philological efforts.
