Rating Sources
Reviewers who enjoyed the book praised Tolkien's unique writing style and his ability to bring characters to life, finding the overall narrative engaging and the stylistic flourishes enjoyable. Many appreciated the opportunity to delve deeper into the rich tapestry of Middle-earth, particularly enjoying the recognition of connections and references to other events and figures within Tolkien's expansive lore. Despite initial challenges, readers found the story itself to be very beautiful and rewarding once they had gained an overview. The book is seen as a valuable addition for those who love the world Tolkien created.
However, the book's translation was a significant point of criticism for some, with common complaints about it being too biblical, old-fashioned, or overly dramatic, which some felt obscured the fantastic world. Reviewers also noted that the book presents initial difficulties, particularly with the sheer number of names and the need to frequently re-read sections to grasp the narrative's flow. For some, the content felt very similar to The Silmarillion, offering little new information. The unique, often expansive, vague, and abstract style of the narrative was acknowledged as a matter of taste, and not appealing to all readers.
Overall, this book appears to be most suitable for dedicated or "hardcore" Tolkien fans, especially those already familiar with The Silmarillion and prepared for its distinctive style. Readers should be ready to invest time to navigate the initial complexities and numerous names. For those who appreciate a dense, mythic narrative and enjoy connecting intricate pieces of Middle-earth's history, the book offers a deep and rewarding dive into the foundational lore that underpins the wider saga. It is a book for those who cherish Tolkien's world and are eager to explore its earliest tales.
