The Silmarillion, Paperback Book, By: R. R. Tolkien

Tolkien is considered the father of modern fantasy. The worlds of fantasy changed after he published The Hobbit, then The Lord of the Rings trilogy, opening the door to new worlds that are acknowledged by the greats of this genre. When he told his children the adventures of this confused little hobbit who embarks on an adventure far from the safety of his home, he created a work that combines the joy of stories, the fascination of myths, and the pain of building a new literary world.
