Off-topic: does anyone have a copy of this issue? The cover of the magazine gives me the impression that the article "Tolkien After Tolkien" is written by Guy Gavriel Kay (which I guess would be an interesting read).

That would indeed have been interesting --& is what I thought when I saw the cover at first. Have you looked at the link (that Jlong provided) though?:

October 2012
Guy Gavriel Kay: Weaving Fantasy and History
Guy Gavriel Kay: A Checklist
Tolkien After Tolkien
J. R. R. Tolkien: An Annotated Checklist of the Posthumous American First Editions
Time Travel is a Round-Trip Ticket
Books into Film: Marion’s Wall / Maxie
Previously in Firsts: 1992–H. G. Wells and Kurt Vonnegut; 2002–Howard Browne
and A. Conan Doyle

Doesn't look like it; two separate articles, I think.

I don't own a copy but might get one.

Don't --it won't be very good.

I love the quote "Complete with original un-clipped First Edition dustjacket, which is in fair condition"

Is there anything special about this book, that I don't see?
