minus-squareGabu@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·10 months agoThey’re outstanding books, if you enjoyed LotR – beware, though, that the Hobbit is a bit more childish and Silmarillion is somewhat disjointed if taken as a single story (it’s more of a collection of different stories)
minus-squareSokathHisEyesOpen@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoGreat! I’ll start on them when I finish the Worldwalker series that I’m reading right now. Which should I read first?
minus-squareGabu@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·10 months agoIMO, start with The Hobbit, that way you can get a better look into Tolkien’s mind before plunging into his legendarium.
minus-squareSokathHisEyesOpen@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoOop! Too late. I started The Silmarillion last night!
minus-squareGabu@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·10 months agoHaha, I hope you enjoy it. Good reading!
