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.

I think HP will stay on number one because alot of my friends hate HP but theyre buying DH anyways because they know how big it will be...PLUS Dh isnt even out yet and its been #1 for sixteen weeks already so im not worried about anything

That's a hard decison!! hmmm well I mean Harry is obviolsy more popular but Tolkien is a great writer so his book should be number one at a certein point but I don't think just yet

Yes, I'm a fan of Tolkien, but I find it rather hard to read his books. There is a lot of description that I sometimes don't want. I love his stories, but the HP books are just a lot better read.

Same here!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooh, hope DH can keep its place at the top!

definitely HP on the top! FORVER!!

I really do hope that HP stays on top. LotR and Tolkien are amazing, there's no doubt about that...but HP deserves to stay on top until it's release and afterwards as well.

I will have to read this new Tolkien book after DH has been released and read several times though, that's for sure.
