Post Tolkien vs. Harry Potter

J.R.R. Tolkien has recently released a new book - The Children of Hurin - that ranks number two in the Amazon charts. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which won't be released for months, has held first place for a solid sixteen weeks.

The Children of Hurin is exactly what one would expect from Tolkien: there are wizards, dragons, and elves. The story is based off a lot of his old manuscripts, which his son put together after Tolkien's death. The book itself is getting closer and closer to Harry Potter on Amazon.com

So, the big question is: Will Harry Potter still be number one by the time the book is released - or is Tolkien catching up? Either way, fans are going to have a lot to read - about wizards, that is.
