About this product

Product Information

Designed to take fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings deeper into the myths and legends of Middle-earth. The Silmarillion is an account of the Elder Days, of the First Age of Tolkien's world. It is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part. The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-Earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor. Included in the book are several shorter works. The Ainulindale is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabeth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Numenor at the end of the Second Age and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings. This pivotal work features the revised, corrected text and includes, by way of an introduction, a fascinating letter written by Tolkien in 1951 in which he gives a full explanation of how he conceived the early Ages of Middle-earth.

  • Good for value, but not great in general.

    Took about 2 and a half months to arrived. Book was slightly damaged, but it's not like I paid much for it anyway.

  • A thoroughly enjoyable prequel to The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit!

    For anyone who has read The Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit, this book adds detail to the first and second ages of middle earth and explains the history of middle earth from its very beginnings and introduces a wealth of characters to add to the background of The Lord of the Rings.

  • An excellent read and great value

    had read Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit years ago and after seeing all the films decided to continue along the Tolkein theme. No dislikes, all in all an excellent read Unlike most of my other purcases and like them it arrived promptly and in good order
