BRIAN SIBLEY is a writer and broadcaster with a life-long
interest in fantasy books and cinema. His fascination with J. R. R.
Tolkien and the myths and history of Middle-earth led to his
critically-acclaimed BBC radio dramatisation of The Lord of the
Rings in which the role of Frodo was played by Ian Holm, who now
portrays Bilbo in Peter Jackson''s The Lord of the Rings Trilogy.
Brian''s subsequent radio dramas included several of Tolkien''s short
novels collected under the title Tales from the Perilous Realm, C.
S. Lewis'' The Chronicles of Narnia, two series of Tales of the
Bizarre by Ray Bradbury and Mervyn Peake''s Titus Groan and
Gormenghast which won him the prestigious Sony Radio Award. His
books include Three Cheers for Pooh, Chicken Run: Hatching the
Movie, Cracking Animation, The Disney Studio Story, The Land of
Narnia and Shadowlands, as well as the text accompanying three maps
by John Howe based on Tolkien''s The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings
and The Silmarillion. Brian is currently writing an in-depth
account of the making of Peter Jackson''s The Lord of the Rings
Trilogy for future publication.
