Holbytlass has just left Hobbiton.
Am I satisfied? Yes, but more so no.

Yes, because from his own hand, Tolkien gave so much.

No, because I like hobbits best and since Tolkien thought different, there aren't enough stories and written histories of them.

I understand what is being said about Tolkien's work not being turned into a "Star Wars' spin-off dilemma, but I am willing to give an author a chance to get me back to "Middle-Earth". Hopefully, it is with the best intent to write something worthwile and not just to sell a book.
