The Silmarillion

Tolkien, John R. R. (Autor)

The Silmarillion is the author's tragic, operatic history of the First Age of Middle-Earth, essential background for readers of the "Lord of the Rings". It tells the tale of Elves and Men, who become 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 Morgot, it seems.
