The Silmarillion by J.R.R Tolkien and illustrated by Ted Nasmith
Characters: (Too many to name AAAAAAAAA) Plot: A fictional account of the fantasy world of Middle Earth's early history from it's creation to an age before the Third Age where the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings are set. Thoughts: "I felt as if I was reading through a dusty old tome of ancient knowledge of a bygone time where the men and women of old walked an Earth similar to ours with other races like Elves and Dwarves and fought the forces of evil like the dirty Orcs and fire-breathing dragons. The world-building in this story, nay this universe's tale, is immense and requires your complete undivided attention."
