It is a very excellent book, isn't it? My favourite tales would be concerning the Battle of Sudden Flame, the Fifth Battle, and Earendil and the War of Wrath.

I loved Turin, Beren and Luthien, and all the wars, they were really cool. I also liked the brief over view of the War of the Ring - although it is so much shorter that LotR it explains all the little bits that you miss in the original book.

And Aduial, does this mean i can have my book back now? I would like it back! Tis mine! MINE i tell you!

I love the Sil, too. Have any of you read the Book of Lost Tales 1 and 2? They tell about how he wrote it. :-D

The Lost Tales seem to be a pretty good option for the people who consider the Silmarillion to be unbearably boring, I've noticed. Anyone here who read Unfinished Tales or Lays of Beleriand?
