Well, for me it's one book from him once in a while... but I haven't read any from him for quite some time... anyway, you may safely leave him behind. This is a Tolkien forum!

And the use of the ampersand, tis merely a habit (nice attention to detail, however). Will it bother you or others here, since there are bound to be grammatists & lovers of fluid & properly written prose here? (not that there's anything wrong w/that)

Oh, it's fine. I think people get used to it, if nothing else. (Although, yes, to be honest, I don't like it What a disgrace to the written language! - But hey, really As long as the text remains readable... We are here to discuss, the form is not that horribly important.)
