The Lord of the Rings, Book 4: The Silmarillion

Blurb

Those interested in J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth should not be without this grand volume that tells the tragic tale of the struggle for control of the Silmarils, a struggle that would determine the history of the world long before the War of the Ring.
This is the story of the First Age, the ancient drama to which characters in "The Lord of the Rings" look back.
