About this product
Product Information
A new hardback edition with a cover design by Tolkien himself, to complement the popular The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings hardbacks. Includes a new Preface by J.R.R. Tolkien unique to this edition. The Silmarillion is an account of the Elder Days, of the First Age of Tolkien's World. It 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 tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor. Included in the book are several shorter works. The Ainulindale is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabeth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Númenor at the end of the Second Age and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings.

I ordered the 2006 Silmarillion to go with my previous books and was sent an old 1994 edition with no maps and no 1951 letter that does not match!!! Customer service sent me to a bot that never responded to help.

Do NOT buy from this seller. They sent me the wrong book, it was also damaged, shipped in a very thin plastic bag without padding, took 2 WEEKS to get here, and their customer service is abysmal. You'll either get an automated response, or they ignore you. They fail on every possible metric and this is the second time in a row. It's not worth the risk to try to save a couple dollars, unless you like literally burning your money. I'm going to end up giving this book away to a local library.
