After a small April shower during which we reshuffled our format slightly, Green Books is back to bring you some lovely May flowers, including two outstanding Special Guest articles:

• Our smart and informative "Science of Middle-earth" series continues with a look at the question of how tall mallorn trees can grow. [More]

• A guest author takes a look at The Lord of the Rings translated into Russian. [More]

Please check back tomorrow for more forthcoming Green Books May updates!
