Cool article. I loved this quote from it:
Quote:
Reading Tolkien's "Silmarillion" is like looking at a frayed and faded picture of your grandfather and all of a sudden recognizing why your nose is shaped just the way it is.

I've seen that edition; it's lovely. I already have one version with illustrations by Ted Nasmith, but there are a lot of new ones in this new edition... I'm wondering if it's worth buying this just so I can look at the pretty pictures...
