Hi Findulas *hugs* Welcome to Forum and THANK YOU for the illuminating history of a world so magical. I was read the Hobbit as a bedtime story and later read the Trilogy of the Rings but nothing more than that. Of course I have seen all the movies…. but I still prefer the magic of the WORD and IMAGINATION.

You have obviously read much more than I and I appreciate you sharing.

Hello Kaitlyn, tyvm for your response, yes I'm a big JRR Tolkien fan, & no you're not stepping on anything, as all responses are welcome & appreciated …. May I suggest you consider reading The Silmarillion, written by his son Christopher Tolkien …… The Hobbit & the Lord of the Rings, all took place during the 3rd age of MiddleEarth, The Silmarillion is a history of the 1st & 2nd ages of MiddleEarth, & better explains some of the people & places that are referenced in the Hobbit & the Lord of the Rings, I think you'd enjoy reading it …… Oh & yes, I like Legolas too, I think he's very cute ……

Hello there, Findulas.
Welcome to the forum and achat!
I too was a big fan of Tolkien some time ago, now, I still like it a lot, but I am no longer a fan of anyworld, or better to say I am a fan of all worlds.

A bit of correction about the Silmarillion… it was not writen by his son, it was writen by J.R.R Tolkien himself, but he never finished working on it. Christopher took JRR work and compiled it into a more or less coherent book.
It's not an easy reading. The Hobbit and The Rings trilogy are as they were intended by JRR.
The Silmarillion is the best his soon could make with the notes and scratchs of the stories JRR was working on.

BTW, my fav character is Eowyn… she confronted the Nazgûl lord alone!

Well, that's all.
Hope you don't mind me stepping into your topic.

Hugs

Hello Eidamir, yes you're correct, the Silmarillion was originally created by JRR Tolkien, & his son Christopher took the notes, etc …… & compiled them into the book called The Silmarillion …… tyvm for that correction …… Once again, no I don't mind any comments that people choose to make, as my original purpose was to solicite comments, & all are welcome …… I too like Eowyn, as she was a brave shieldmaiden of the Rohirrim, & yes she confronted the dreaded Lord of the Nazgul, whom it was prophesized could not be killed by a man …… she did however have a small helper, in Meriadoc the Hobbit, who stabbed the Nazgul Lord from behind in the sinew behind his knee, causing him to falter & the blow from his mace to miss Eowyn & hit the ground allowing Eowyn the chance to stab the Nazgul Lord & vanquish him ……..
