"The writings of J.R.R. Tolkien have enthralled millions of readers around the globe. This new handbook demonstrates that it is not just the words and stories of Tolkien that capture the attention of readers; it is also the ideas of Tolkien. The writings of Tolkien are a powerful illustration of the power of words to convey images and ideas than can transform our imagination and our worldview. Matching one idea from Tolkien's writings with each Letter of the alphabet, Louis Markos employs a memorable method to demonstrate the simplicity and complexity of Tolkien."--Provided by the publisher.

Louis Markos, author of “From A to Z to Middle Earth with J.R.R. Tolkien,” says casting Black and brown actors in “The Rings of Power” threatens story believability. He said Tolkien described elves, for example, as “fair-faced.”
In a fictional story, casting people of color threatens believability??? hahahaha.
I think it reveals more about the person who would say such a thing than about the quality of an adaptation that includes non-white actors.
