While looking up quotes about LotR at wikipedia, I found part of a quote by C.S. Lewis:

Quote:
Such a book has of course its predestined readers, even now more numerous and more critical than is always realised. To them a reviewer need say little, except that here are beauties which pierce like swords or burn like cold iron; here is a book that will break your heart.

Wikipedia says it's from Review by C.S. Lewis, as quoted in The Essential J. R. R. Tolkien Sourcebook: A Fan's Guide to Middle-Earth and Beyond (2004) by George W. Beahm, p. 28
(see: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/The_Lord_of_the_Rings)


Now I really loved the quotation and I was wondering if anybody knows where to find the full text. Has anybody got the book where it's quoted from, or do you know where to find it on the Internet?
I'd be very grateful if you coudl help me with this.
