Reply to comment by bluesoaplime in Just finished my first reading of the Silmarillion and wanted to share some of my favorite passages with all of you by JoltinJoeDimaggio

I can easily see how some people might prefer the Silmarillion to the LOTR. Once you read the Sil you realize that LOTR only covers a fraction of time and that so many stories come before it. The Sil is also a lot grittier and darker, if you haven’t gotten to Turin’s story yet then buckle up
