Foldout map of map of Beleriand & the Lands to the North in rear of book. The Silmarillion is the core of J.R.R. Tolkien's imaginative writing, a collection of narratives that in origin precede even the Hobbit, and tell the story of the creation of the world in the First Age, the coming of Elves and Men, the theft of the Silmarils – the jewels containing the pure light that illuminated Middle-earth – and the wars between the first Dark Lord and the High Elves. This book is a profoundly beautiful and rewarding read that unlocks the entirety of Middle-earth’s history. A great gift for any Tolkienist.
