As told previously, during the Dagor Bragollach the mighty of Nargothrond would have been slain in battle in the Pass of Sirion had not Barahir and his warriors saved him from death. In debt, Finrod gave his ring as a token of faith to Barahir and bid him and his kin to come forth to Nargothrond and seek a boon of him should it prove necessary. For four years Beren dwelt alone in Dorthonion, waging a one- war against the Enemy, until he was wounded and driven from the highlands. Thence he passed south and came to the Forest of Neldoreth, which according to legend was enchanted and none could pass its borders. But the Girdle of parted to allow Beren access to the guarded forests of Doriath, and there he recovered. Beren knew that to win the Silmaril he would need valiant companions and, leaving Doriath, he passed above the Falls of Sirion to Nargothrond. Finrod agreed and, along with ten companions, he and Beren set out for Angband. She passed out of Doriath and crossed the Sirion before heading north, but was waylaid by Celegorm and Curufin. They passed north to Sirion and there Huan did battle with in wolf form, defeating him and driving him from the island. In the Forest of Brethil they were assailed by Celegorm and Curufin, but Huan drove his former master away. Then Beren cut a Silmaril from his crown, but after doing that grew greedy and tried to steal the others. Beren nearly died, but Thorondor, King of Eagles, arrived and rescued the heroes, returning them to Doriath. They lived as mortals and removed themselves to Tol Galen in the midst of the River Adurant in Ossiriand, where they bore a son, Dior. But the Silmaril passed to as promised by Beren, and the fate of those elves who would marry a mortal was set, for to live in peace the elves had to give up their immortality. Only twice more in history would this occur. The Battle of Unnumbered Tears. Thus, decided that the elves must recover the other two jewels lest civil war erupt between the and their cousins. Maedhros proposed a bold plan to drive the legions of the Enemy from Dorthonion, Tol-in-Guarloth, the slopes of Hithlum and the plains of Lothlann. The two armies took shape. The latter army of the west was many times larger than the east, at least twenty thousand strong, but since it was tasked with taking Angband, its vast size was necessary. Unfortunately, had already predicted the plan. Rather than challenge the smaller eastern host, he directly assaulted the western even as it drew up in the Ered Wethrin. This force, led by Gwindor, broke through to Angband, but was slain within the gates of the fortress although Gwindor escaped back to the south. The men of Brethil fell holding the rear, but the rest of the army escaped thanks to reinforcements from Gondolin. Upon hearing of the opening of hostilities Maedhros led his troops towards the enemy, but Uldor, commander of the Easterlings who made up part of the eastern host, proved false and attacked the main bulk of the army. Simultaneously, other Easterlings loyal to Morgoth attacked the host from the highlands of Dorthonion and the slopes of the Ered Luin, though most of these were in turn surprised and destroyed by the dwarves of Belegost.

Average rating 4. Rating details. More filters. Sort order. Dec 27, Debi rated it it was ok. In the last week or so I finally reread Tolkien's Silmarillion. It's good. I read it as if I were listening to Hesiod's Theogony sung by a bard. Old tales that I know well, but tales that need to be retold again and again. And now It's very different He'll give a poem in three different versions with detailed notes about each and every change. In many ways it's tiresome reading. This man in anal to the nth degree. He's a scholar and I have to admit that his writing quickly becomes tiresome. But bedded in his scholarly blah is Tolkien and Tolkien is anything but blah. These are Tolkien's tales but in early versions. It's like sitting and listening to a different bard tell the same tales Hesiod told. Hesiod might be better which is why his tales are the versions most of us know but this earlier telling, these rough drafts, add details and twists that I wouldn't have thought of or ever wondered about. It'll be slow reading, I'm afraid. There are three very thick volumes to get through. But I think I'll continue. There is enough here to hold my interest and even Christopher's meanderings have a certain charm once I get over being bored by him. He's obviously a philologist and when he speaks about the languages mostly in notes about names he holds my attention. Reading Christopher's books, I marvel more and more at the scholarship that underlies J. Tolkien's work. I got about halfway through and found I was just not held by the many retellings of stories I had already read in Tolkien's other books. There is a place in my heart for this kind of work but at the moment, I am too distracted to enjoy it. I'll have to return to this and finish reading it later. Jan 14, Wildstar rated it it was amazing Shelves: tolkien , fantasy. Not an easy reading. Basically for hardcore fans. But once one has completed the Silmarillion, enjoyed it and wants more, the history is a fabulous adventure inside the creation of the Tolkien universe. Also a great act of love by a son for the work of his father.

About Christopher Tolkien. Christopher Tolkien. Christopher Reuel Tolkien was the youngest son of the author J. Tolkien — , and is best known as the editor of much of his father's posthumously published work. He drew the original maps for his father's The Lord of the Rings , which he signed C. The J. The series shows the development over time of Tolkien's conception of Middle-earth as a fictional place with its own peoples, languages , and history, from his earliest notions of a "mythology for England" through to the development of the stories that make up The Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings. It is not a "history of Middle-earth" in the sense of being a chronicle of events in Middle-earth written from an in-universe perspective; it is instead an out-of-universe history of Tolkien's creative process. In —01, the twelve volumes were republished in three limited edition omnibus volumes. Non-deluxe editions of the three volumes were published in Some of the content consists of earlier versions of already published works, while other portions are new material. These books are extremely detailed, often analysing a scrap of paper to provide the full evolution of two or even three different versions of a passage that were rewritten over each other. Despite the great amount of material in the twelve volumes, numerous unpublished texts are still known to exist in the Bodleian and Marquette University libraries, and in other papers held by individuals or organizations, such as the Elvish Linguistic Fellowship. The first five books track the early history of The Silmarillion and related texts. Books ten and eleven focus on material from the Silmarillion that Tolkien worked on after The Lord of the Rings was published, including the Annals of Beleriand and the Annals of Aman. Book twelve discusses the development of the Appendices to The Lord of the Rings and examines assorted writings from the last years of Tolkien's life. Christopher Tolkien made the decision not to include any material related to The Hobbit in The History of Middle-earth because it was not originally intended to form part of the mythology , but was a children's story and originally not set in Middle-earth, but was revised during the writing of The Lord of the Rings. The History of The Hobbit was published separately, in two volumes, in and was edited by John D. Turin killed himself after having learned of his sister's death. Sorry, I'm a fan of The Silmarillion and the tale of Turin and had to speak up. Post a comment. Part 1 can be found here.
