A stark and beautiful retelling of a set of tales told in shorter form in "The Silmarillion." Highly enjoyable for Tolkien fans, and possibly a good introduction to his work for any fan of mythology or heroic opera who hasn't read him (if there are any!), although probably not as likely to interest anyone who isn't otherwise a fan of either the writer or the genre.
