:
The fact that around half of his bibliography was published posthumously by his son?

Granted it isn't quite the same thing and nothing inspired from his manuscripts and fragmented works could ever quite have the same literary value as Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, but it still proves that the spirit of a good fantasy universe can transcend the original authors mortality.
Those were mere fragments that his son put togethor and edited for his father. Not the same as writing new story. He didn't pull a Brian Herbert, may he forever rot in his own filth.
