A number-one New York Times bestseller when it was originally published, THE SILMARILLION is the core of J.R.R. Tolkien's imaginative writing, a work whose origins stretch back to a time long before THE HOBBIT. Tolkien considered THE SILMARILLION his most important work, and, though it was published last and posthumously, this great collection of tales and legends clearly sets the stage for all his other writing. The story of the creation of the world and of the the First Age, this is the ancient drama to which the characters in THE LORD OF THE RINGS look back and in whose events some of them, such as Elrond and Galadriel, took part. The three Silmarils were jewels created by Feanor, most gifted of the Elves. Within them was imprisoned the Light of the Two Trees of Valinor before the Trees themselves were destroyed by Morgoth, the first Dark Lord. Thereafter, the unsullied Light of Valinor lived on only in the Silmarils, but they were seized by Morgoth and set in his crown, which was guarded in the impenetrable fortress of Angband in the north of Middle-earth. THE SILMARILLION is the history of the rebellion of Feanor and his kindred against the gods, their exile from Valinor and return to Middle-earth, and their war, hopeless despite all their heroism, against the great Enemy. This second edition features a letter written by J.R.R. Tolkien describing his intentions for the book, which serves as a brilliant exposition of his conception of the earlier Ages of Middle-earth.

本文写于《精灵宝钻》英文版诞生之时。 《精灵宝钻》在作者过世四年后的今天，终于得以出版。它讲述的是有关远古时代的故事，那段时期亦可称为世界的第一纪元。《魔戒》叙述的是第三纪元末那些轰轰烈烈的事迹，《精灵宝钻》中的传奇故事则是源自久远得多的过去，彼时首代黑暗...  

J.R.R. Tolkien 的小说中令人熟知的有“魔戒传奇”(Lord of Rings),拍成了电影。另外几本书是“The Hobbit”，“The Silmarillion”和“The Children Of Hurin”. 我看过这四本书中的三本，只有“The Hobbit”没有看过。我被Tolkien的书迷住了，其实他的书中充满了想象的历史，...

LOTR象西游，而Silmarillion象史诗

在某一瞬间突然意识到，所谓神话故事，就是可以脱离逻辑的束缚，以偶然导出必然

中土世界的创世纪 以及抢戒指很久很久很久很久很久以前发生的抢宝石的故事 =.= 前一半真是看得津津有味 战线太长永远是硬伤 后来被记不住人名地名打败了 大多数故事都比较灰暗 整体完全没有主角光环可言 无论是哪个谁谁经常就便当了 以及亘古不变的 大鸟外挂一直都在啊!
