The forerunner to The Lord of the Rings, The Silmarillion tells the earlier history of Middle-earth, recounting the events of the First and Second Ages, and introducing some of the key characters, such as Galadriel, Elrond, Elendil and the Dark Lord, Sauron.
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 Númenor 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.

Jeg er fuldstændig overvældet! Sikke en bog, der så fint fortæller, om stort set alle aspekter i J.R.R Tolkiens univers 🤯

It's beautiful but it's a scholarly work - an encyclopedia, and the character gallery is so vast and interconnected that keeping track is near impossible. The telling is matter of fact and informative rather then engaging or stirring. However, the prose is beautiful and the universe immense.I'll judge it as appealing to us geeks who are curious and obsessed about the details of the Tolkien universe, but not for those that just enjoy relaxing with a book.

One of the best books i have read and heard. Certainly it wont be the last. Big plans to read it to my children when they grow older.

En rigtig god fortælling om forhistorien og tilblivelsen til Hobitten og Ringens Herre 😊 Den kan dog godt virke forvirrende pga. at der er en masse navne og steder der skal holdes styr på ☺️ men kender man bare lidt til Hobitten og Ringens Herre, så kan man godt følge med 😊 samt at oplæseren er god til at man kan føle med i begivenhederne der sker i bogen.
