the silmarillion is liked by a lotta peeps tho, it kinda reads like the bible, i suppose it is the bible for middle earth fans tho. better is to read the bible i guess, i have read it, (along with the koran, the gita, an some tibeten stuff) and before u diss me let me tell u the bible is full of war, incest, rape, murder, famine, love, death, an black magic (i shall harden his heart ...) well the old testement anyway so its got something for evryone
