Yeah
It's very good, and keeps true to Tolkien's style and the original plotline in Quenta Silmarillion. It has a bit of a MacBeth air about it, in that several characters die because of madness or self loathing. |

Ah, then it must be Locky who lives in that neck of the woods. Nice to hear MEC is still going, tbh I don't have the time for many forums now, just frequent on here and on AU. Anyway, it's a good book, and the artwork in it is stunning. |
