About the book

Tolkien's The Silmarillion presents the ancient history and mythology of Middle-earth, reaching back thousands of years before the events of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. The book tells of the creation of the world, the rise of the Elves, the making of the Silmarils and the wars against the dark power Morgoth. Grand in scale and mythological in tone, it provides the deeper history behind Tolkien's fictional world and reveals the extraordinary complexity of his legendarium.
