Exa
LOL big grin big grin
I dun remember how long it took me to read the silmarillion... the first time it took me three whole days, I think, the other times were faster. Silmarillion was I think the book I read most slowly of all the books I read the last few years

Exa
LoTR is not a trilogy but a single book the publishers wanted to have in three parts
Actually it has six parts

and the silmarillion is way better than lotr... as soon as u get used to the style
quite complicatin tho

feanor
that depends on who you ask. i've read the sil several times only to fully understand it even more than the previous, sort of like reading hamlet cool the book is great as is the trilogy. but the one difference is that it is a far more sadder tale of the history before LotR concerning elves and men at that time.

pip-foot

PippinTook
Hmmm I wish I could join in the race sad My copy's at home...I checked it out from the library, though, so it's not exactly mine roll eyes (sarcastic)

I'm still trying to read it. Like I said in the other Silmarillion thread, I have five books to read for school, so I'm on like the fourth page or something like that in the Sil. But when I finish the others, I'll start reading the Silmarillion again stick out tongue It's hard to understand though....When I first started it (hehe a few months ago roll eyes (sarcastic) I've had to start over a few times because I forgot what I read) I kept having to re-read the same paragraphs over and over and over and over again cause I couldn't get it....As soon as I get used to the style, I'll be able to go through it in a day or something stick out tongue Hahaha.

Kitoky
Okie, I'm just perfectly confused here....

confused

PippinTook
Why? What's to be confused about? They're having a race to see who can read the Silmarillion fastest....What's confusing? confused

Smodden
well we all get together and we read the sil and then we read fast and faster.
