Video: Silmarillion In Three Minutes


[Previously: The Silmarillion Project]

I love The Silmarillion pretty hard, despite the fact that I can't pronounce a single name in it, but there's no doubt that it's one of the most challenging reads of the fantasy genre. If you're curious about the back story of The Lord of the Rings, but you don't want to wade into the Swamps of Sadness that are The Silmarillion, this is a great place to start. It's not only concise, but funny as well.
"Have you ever wanted to to read JRR Tolkiens history of middle earth: "The Silmarillion"? Then wave it in the faces of all those fantasy nerds? Well now you don't have to! Instead you can take this shortcut and prove yourself the lazy bum you are!"
