Done reading this book, it's a fine peice of art if I may say so. About the begginings of Middle-earth by J.R.R. Tolkien. Impressive, albeit, complicated book, full of detail so you can pretty easily imagine what he's trying to project, and while some people might find it slow, I find it invigorating intelectually to see such a high quality of literature and fantasy, molded in perfect symmetry, leaving the readers with many extraordinary short stories explaining "how it all began". There are love stories, wars, battles, conflicts, betrayals, everything you could ask for, and I think that it's increidible that in such a short book (for my tastes at least) it can give you that sense of satisfaction... Well that's about it, read it if you like Tolkien, if not you might find it a bit slow and boring... So I've been told.

    The picture I posted for this Entry is called The First Dawn Of The Sun. The sun was called Anar the Fire-golden, fruit of Laurelin, which at the beggining of time was a Tree that was the source of all light along with another tree called Telperion (wich eventually a leaf of the tree became the moon).
