    /24-7PressRelease/ - LOS ANGELES, CA, January 03, 2006 -- LearnOutLoud.com, an online resource for audio and video educational products, presents the J. R. R. Tolkien Audio Resource Page (http://www.learnoutloud.com/tolkien). This web page is a one-stop portal for every audio book by the author. Included are multiple audio book editions of the books in The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers and The Return of the King). In addition, other popular Tolkien titles such as The Hobbit and The Silmarillion are featured.

"J. R. R. Tolkien has produced such an amazing body of literature and we wanted to do our best to highlight the titles that are available in audio format," said LearnOutLoud.com CEO and Founder Jon Bischke. "We've searched high and low to find 60 titles including multiple versions of The Lord of the Rings titles. It's a great way to experience his work."

Some of the many narrators who have recorded Tolkien's work include Derek Jacobi, Rob Inglis and J. R. R.'s son Christopher Tolkien. J. R. R. Tolkien himself can be heard on the Caedmon Audio recording of excerpts of The Hobbit and the Fellowship of the Ring. In addition, there are full cast recordings of titles such as The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy.

"We also came upon a few lesser-known audio titles such as a 1964 interview with Tolkien and a series of dramatized stories entitled Tales from Tolkien," said Bischke. "We feel that Tolkien fans around the world will enjoy this resource and will find his audio books to be a great way to celebrate his life and writings."

The J. R. R. Tolkien Audio Resource Page also contains a short biography and a list of recommended selections.
