Title: Epic!
Review: I fell in love with Tolkein's work when I first read The Hobbit as a child. Since then, I've read many of Tolkein's novels, but I read The Silmarillion only recently. And boy was I awestruck! Tolkein weaves a master tale of beauty, valor, faith, and courage of the Children of Illuvatar against the relentless assault of the Great Enemy, Morgoth, and his servants. The epic proportions of the battle between Good and Evil reminds one of an even greater work - the Bible - and Tolkein appears to have been inspired by the language of the Old Testament. The Silmarillion will always be one of my most favorite books of all time.
