Synopsis
Set in a time far earlier than Tolkien's master works, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, this is the epic history of the elves, and the grand story of the creation of Tolkien's magical world. The Lord of the Rings narrated the great events at the end of the Third Age; but the tales of The Silmarillion are legends deriving from a much deeper past, when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils. Never published in the author's lifetime, The Silmarillion is an essential compendium for all Tolkien fans. It will be published in five consecutive volumes, each completely unabridged. The series contains not only the Quenta Silmarillion, but four other short works: the Ainulindale, Valaquenta, Akallabeth and Of the Rings of Power., A number-one New York Times bestseller when it was originally published, THE SILMARILLION is the core of J.R.R. Tolkien's imaginative writing, a work whose origins stretch back to a time long before THE HOBBIT. Tolkien considered THE SILMARILLION his most important work, and, though it was published last and posthumously, this great collection of tales and legends clearly sets the stage for all his other writing. The story of the creation of the world and of the the First Age, this 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 three Silmarils were jewels created by Feanor, most gifted of the Elves. Within them was imprisoned the Light of the Two Trees of Valinor before the Trees themselves were destroyed by Morgoth, the first Dark Lord. Thereafter, the unsullied Light of Valinor lived on only in the Silmarils, but they were seized by Morgoth and set in his crown, which was guarded in the impenetrable fortress of Angband in the north of Middle-earth. THE SILMARILLION is the history of the rebellion of Feanor and his kindred against the gods, their exile from Valinor and return to Middle-earth, and their war, hopeless despite all their heroism, against the great Enemy. This second edition features a letter written by J.R.R. Tolkien describing his intentions for the book, which serves as a brilliant exposition of his conception of the earlier Ages of Middle-earth.

    MUCH BETTER THAN DESCRIBED!! It's like a brand new book but they only listed it as "good" so I'm very impressed and happy about my order! The service was fast and easy, they gave me an incredible offer I couldn't refuse, and I greatly appreciate it! The book looks like it came right from the store so it looks great, so great quality overall! Shipping was fast & they packaged it per the norm for book stores so everything was A++++. I can HIGHLY RECOMMEND them for sure & will buy from them again!

    I would DEFINITELY purchase from this seller again. Seller might want to add more pics and better description because there was a tear on the back dust jacket that wasn’t mentioned. Could’ve happened during shipping so I’m not holding it against the seller. I fixed with tape on the inside of jacket. No harm/no foul. The seller had a more than generous price for this book + free shipping. NO complaints. Hence, I would purchase from this seller again without hesitation.

  • Enlightening

    As a big fan of the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies, I was interested in the background of those stories - thus I wanted to read the Silmarillion. The heavy style of the Silmarillion is confusing. For example, the same character may be referred to by three or more names in the same chapter. HOWEVER, there is a convenient index of names in the back of the book. I rated the book a 4/5 stars because I learned a lot of critical information (for example, the original Orcs were elves!!), how Mordor came about, more about the variety of elves both inside and outside of middle earth, and so on.. I highly recommend this book for any one seeking to understand more about Lord of the Rings. However, I took off a star for the often confusing style of the prose.

  • Just read it

    The sort of book you want to immediately reread after finishing it. This collection of earlier works unpublished at the time of Tolkien's death, does a great deal to shed light on the more popular and well known The Lord of the Rings (and The Hobbit to a lesser extent). It makes the reader more aware of the background and provides a richer reading of the works. As a tip, when reading try as much as you can to read straight through a passage without stopping to check names, translations of words, lineages, or maps as these are frequently explained within the section (often the following line or two) if you have the patience. Also, while the first two works (Ainulindalë and Valaquenta) are written in a fairly "high" prose style, much of the Silmarillion proper (especially around Chapter 16 ...

    I haven’t read it yet, but the condition of the book is almost brand new! I live in Guam, and it got here real quick! Kudos

  • A history of Middle Earth's creation mythology.

    Not Tolkien's best writing but a necessary read that explains the world of the Middle Earth adventures. Very detailed and retains Tolkien's ability to conjure images in the mind of the reader.
