I'm a huge fan of Tolkien, and I had never heard of her. How bizarre. I wonder if she is mostly well known in America or whether I simply managed to miss her work. I am very tempted to get "The Atlas of Middle-earth" now though.
- anacrolix 2y agoShe was more well known longer ago when there was less material. Probably a lot of her stuff has been remixed and reused the original authorship has been forgotten. More recently (>2000), I believe it's become apparent there are quite a few errors. Little things like rivers misnamed or roads or rivers mixed up. It's an accomplishment nonetheless and was a big deal when a Tolkien fanship was more niche.
