The Children of Hurin

broderic on May 1, 2007

I had finished this book sometime last week. Loved it, but I had read it already in its various forms. It made me tear up at the Finduilas part. Damn, Morgoth Bauglir! I curse thee! May you stay locked up in The Void for all eternity.

I wonder how those who haven’t read The Silmarillion are going to react to this book. Dark and forboding it is, and nothing like The Lord of the Rings. Those elves and men are not as nice. Everyone is more like Boromir. Turin mainly.

B+

    Boromir and Farimir were my favorite characters in the book. Faramir was badass in the book. They sure took liberties wih his character in the film.

    Need to get around to reading “Simarillion” and “The Children of Hurin”. They sound pretty cool. I need to read the who;e collection again.
