luciana Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Very Thank you, Cam, I definitely bookmarked it. When I have more time, I'm going to be wandering through their articles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luciana Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 [quote]For instance, I heard that someone wrote a ballet about Beren and Luthien. Now that's cool... Yeah, it's called the Lay of Luthien.[/quote] One of my favorite parts of non-trilogy stuff so far. Trivia: J. R> R. Tolkien had Luthien inscribed on his wife's tombstone, and Beren on his.

If you have a question, he will answer you quickly too.... Cam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antonius Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Yeah, thanks, Cam. The two best Tolkien sites on the net are The Encycolpedia of Arda and of course, my favorite, [url="http://www.theonering.net"]TheOneRing.net[/url]. It's a huge fansite, and the Green Books staff are really intelligent. Think our Catholic Apologetics board bigshots, but these are Tolkien scholars. Wowies.

azaelia Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I've read the Silmarillion 3+ times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullnaChinaShop Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I"ve read it several times. I like it because after you read it and understand the main story line and how the different stories are interconnected, you can go back and read your favorite story because it is a collection of short stories that tell a larger tale.

Carnanc Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I really need to read this again. Certainly my favorite book by Tolkien. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socrates Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 (edited) I'm a big LOTR/Tolkien fan, but have never been able to get all the way through the Silmarillion. I guess made-up mythology just doesn't interest me that much. Edited April 26, 2005 by Socrates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
