New Middle Earth novel(ization)?

[Volo]

I wouldn't buy it, I'd get it from the library.

But seriously, why not, I don't have anything the imagination of others. It feels unfair if a best-selling book is based heavily on something written by somebody else, but aren't most books that anyway.

I would regard such books as "Tolkien" because they're not, but at the moment I can't find a reason why I wouldn't touch them. If they're written, they might be worth reading.

Somehow this reminds me of Gone With the Wind's sequel, though I have read neither the original nor the sequel.
