Title: Silmarillion= least favorite of the works of Tolkien
Review: This is definatly not what i expected. the first 100 pages are a grueling history of the gods of middle earth and it took me a commited effort to read through them. There were several times i thought the phone book would be a more interesting reading. after that it lightens up a little bit but i still had flash backs of sitting in church as a child being forced to listen to the preacher without falling asleep. I am dedicated to finishing the book, like it or not. In my opinion, this is not the Tolkien we all now and love. this is something totally different. It's not the same style or interesting story as the hobit or LOTR. I would only recommend this to the most serious and dedicated Tolkien fans or nerdy types that enjoy a difficult and long winded geneology of ficticous days of old.
