Your Tolkien Virgin Ping!
Read along with a Tolkien Virgin as he discovers and comments on the history of Middle Earth as he reads it for the first time. These articles started with The Silmarillion, is now journeying through The Hobbit, and will finish with the epic Lord Of The Rings. At the pace of 2 articles per week (Mondays and Fridays) the articles will wrap up about the same time that the final movie of the Lord Of The Rings story is released.
If anyone would like for me to ping them directly when I post the Tolkien Virgin articles or my Daily Tolkien articles let me know. I hope that you enjoy them!

Well, we did tell him not to start with Silmarillion!

Wasn't the Silmarillion published after Tolkien's death? If so then I think a big part of the difference can be chalked up to JRR's style as opposed to Christopher's, don't you think?
