The New(ish) Tolkien Estate Copyright FAQ - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

It seems that Amazon and the Tolkien Estate have been sued by a writer who claims to have written, published and copyrighted "an original book entitled The Fellowship of the King and conceived an entire seven-book series, The War of the Rings." Hmmmm. I generally do not mix my professional life with this forum, however, to the plaintiff, I say (with my tongue inserted firmly in my cheek) "good luck."
