The Fall of Gondolin is epic.

My father gave up trying to read it to me (when I was a child) and for himself decades ago. You wouldn't happen to be a grumpy old Greek man named Sotiris, would you?

The Tale of Middle Earth Rapunzel is great!

Same, but Silmarilion since 1989.

Was it published that far back? I thought it was new when I read it in about 1991. It's the only one I read after Unfinished Tales.

Pretty sure I got it from the library in middle school. So between 80 and 83…

I've got out my copy of Unfinished Tales and that was published in 1982. Maybe that was it.

Possibly? I don’t have my copy on hand so I can’t check. But I’m pretty sure it was Lost Tales.

You would have gotten it in 83 as that is when book one was published.

I was sooo close. LOL

I looked it up. Vol 1 was published in '83, and Vol 2 came out in '84.

I just read The Silmarilion and I am speechless.
