Anyone buy this book?
I'm reading it, and so far it's just as amazing as "The Hobbit". Makes you wonder what else can come out of the unfinished texts of JRR Tolkien. Finally we witness the true armies of the Dark Lord, and get a complete understanding of the small allusions Middle-Earth characters made of the Eastern lands of old. I remember the first time I read the Fellowship, and it talked about the evil within the mountains, the Balrog of Morgoth. This book deals with the makings and lives of those who lived and died under Morgoth, the true Evil King. If you thought Sauron was powerful, now you can read about Sauron's Lord.
If anyone is into Lord of the Rings stories, then this is a must-read, just like The Hobbit (There are no Hobbits in the ancient lands of Middle-Earth, btw =p, only dwarves, elves, and Men).
