Description: The work that illustrates the cores of Tolkien's fantasy world, it is the last and posthumously published The Silmarillion that he considered his most important work. A remarkable tale of legend and myth, this is Tolkien's retelling of the creation of the world and the happenings of the First Age, the drama to which the Lord of the Rings characters look back. This new edition of The Silmarillion contains the revised and corrected "second edition" text and, by way of introduction, a letter written by J.R.R. Tolkien in 1951, which provides a brilliant exposition of his conception of the earlier Ages. It also contains almost fifty full-color illustrations by the artist Ted Nasmith, many of which appear for the first time.
