 John Garth, Tolkien and the Great War
Garth believes that Tolkien’s experience in the Great War, and in particular the loss of two of his closest friends at the Battle of Somme, had a profound effect on the mythology he invented.
Much of Garth’s argument and examples are derived from the work of Thomas Shippey, but while Shippey writes with a scholar’s deliberation and attention to detail, Garth has the journalist’s gift of being able to summarize a complex train of events and ideas in a pithy, clear and accurate way.
Garth writes that Tolkien’s experience of the war enabled to him anticipate "the dictum of Arthur C. Clarke that 'the introduction of an advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic' to people in a traditional society.

 Tolkien and the Great War - The Threshold of Middle Earth - John Garth
Garth traces both the larger events that surrounded Tolkien and reshaped his life, and the first growth of the invented languages and mythologies in which he found an inward escape from the war.
Garth makes such a connection seem more possible, notably in his discussion of the earliest forms of Tolkien’s myths.
From Garth's account, the reader can see that Tolkien himself had experienced the desire for escape, and had made his languages and his mythologies as a private refuge from real horrors.

John Garth’s Tolkien and the Great War will certainly captivate an elite segment of those recent converts, but it is written more for those who have long been enthralled by Middle-earth and its fantastic denizens.
Garth's book should be read by anyone wishing to understand the roots of Tolkien's great work, and the light it casts does certainly illuminate certain aspects of "The Lord of the Rings".
Garth then shifts into a fascinating study of the often surprising and unexpected influence of the war on Tolkien's vast Middle-earth mythology.

 Pride & Joy - Garth Ennis, John Higgins - Graphic novel review
Garth Ennis is well known for mixing genres to get a new spin.
Just a Pilgrim was a sci-fi western; Unknown Soldier mixed The X-Files with a Rambo-esque super-soldier; and Preacher has more crossed genres than we can think of - a western road trip with vampires, Christian mythology and ultra-violence.
Ennis lifts it briefly in places, mostly with a deft comic touch or some grievous wounding; but it isn't enough to lift this far above average.
