The Children of Hurin

[glossyp]

Does anyone have this book? It's described as a prequel to Lord of the Rings. An unfinished novel by Tolkien, his son edited the book. It is selling very well. It has also garnered good reviews. I guess I need to go it one. Any feedback would be welcome. USA Today article (http://www.usatoday.com/life/books/news/2007-05-01-tolkien-sales_N.htm).

If you've read the Silmarillion, then you already know the bones of the story.

Thanks for the response. I did read it (many years ago though) so I'll probably pick up this book on my next bookstore visit.

They must revised the Hurin part of Silmarillion quite a bit in order to make a complete book.

I'll probably read it when everyone is bored of it.
