Amazon.com Review:
The Silmarillion is J.R.R. Tolkien's tragic, operatic history of the First Age of Middle-Earth, essential background material for serious readers of the classic Lord of the Rings saga. Tolkien's work sets the standard for fantasy, and this audio version of the "Bible of Middle-Earth" does The Silmarillion justice. Martin Shaw's reading is grave and resonant, conveying all the powerful events and emotions that shaped elven and human history long before Bilbo, Frodo, Gandalf and all the rest embarked on their quests. Beginning with the Music of the Ainur, The Silmarillion tells a tale of the Elder Days, when Elves and Men became estranged by the Dark Lord Morgoth's lust for the Silmarils, pure and powerful magic jewels. Even the love between a human warrior and the daughter of the Elven king cannot defeat Morgoth, but the War of Wrath finally brings down the Dark Lord. Peace reigns until the evil Sauron recovers the Rings of Power and sets the stage for the events told in the Lord of the Rings. This is epic fantasy at its finest, thrillingly read and gloriously unabridged. (Running time: 14 hours, 6 CDs)
Product Description:
These tales tell of the rebellion of Feanor and his kindred against the gods, and of the war, hopeless, despite great heroism, against the great enemy.

- Akallebeth=Atalante=ATLANTIS!
I purchased the paperback because they were out of hardcovers. The hardcover appears to have pictures. I have not yet read the Hobbit or the LORs. I intend to read them as well. I do own the extended DVD version of the LOR. I was told by many who have read the Hobbit and the LOR to NOT waste my time or rack my brain trying to read the Silmarillion. I tend to agree with them: however, for different reasons. Let me start by saying that this piece of literary work is simply a JRR Tolkien Masterpiece. ... Read More

- The Silmarils Now Have a Voice
This complete and unabridged performance of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion by Martin Shaw is as much of a delight to the ears as were the lights of the Silmarils to the eyes of all who are fortunate enough to have beheld them. The eloquent prequel to The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, created by J. R. R. Tolkien and edited by his son Christopher, comes alive as you listen to Shaw. Each character's voice and personality comes through, names I found difficult to read flow smoothly rather than interrupt ... Read More

- Lay of the Silmarillion
The Simarillion--what can I say?
One of the greatest books in every way.
In language, in tone, in subject matter,
Most other literature compared just shatter.
A history of woe, mixed with hope.
Someday Middle-Earth shall stop its downward slope.
The Elves will stop fighting for the Silmarils--
Those mighty jewels with which legend overfills--
Which through the ages have driven elves to kill,
Hatred in their hearts to fill,
Drove them to betray ... Read More

- Maybe it was, just, me, but I found the book to be unreadable
I had read the Hobbit and the trilogy of the rings and thought the The Silmarillion would be a worthwhile read. However, I found the book to be unreadable. I am not certain what the author had done differently, but I could not get past the first 40 pages and those pages required serious work to read. It looked as if the author had some very good ideas but he had put it in a manner that was difficult to understand.
Perhaps you will do better than I did. However, this was one of only a few books ... Read More

- Tough read but well worth it
This book is tough to read and is more suited to an older audience. I wouldn't hesitate to get it for someone in high school if they have already read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. But the book is probably more suited to college age and above due to some of the vocabulary and themes the Tolkien presents. There are also a lot of names used by Tolkien, so at times it can be a little cumbersome to keep track of who is who, where they are from, what they did, etc. but if you can keep attention to detail it ...
