Shâtaz is two years older than Graznikh and simultaneously his best friend and worst rival. Two years ago they got themselves into some serious trouble that somehow got Graznikh sent to the mines for life and landed Shâtaz a spot in the region's most infamous raiding band. Graznikh still hasn't forgiven him for it.

Obviously you don't own a Silmarillion 😏

Peter Jackson spricht über Lizenzverhandlungen mit dem Tolkien Estate über Verfilmungen weiterer Bücher, namentlich des #Silmarillion und Unfinished Tales. Möglich gemacht soll das der Tod von Christopher Tolkien haben, weil der Erbe bislang neue Romanlizenzen blockierte.

Which cover is your favorite and why?

I just found a local Swedish copy of The Silmarillion that had an unexpected albeit - in a sense - sensible cover depicting Melkor’s head/helm, wearing his iron crown, embellished with the silmarils. Check it out.

I think it is sensible because I believe that it was Melkor who pushed Fëanor over the edge. I am in no way diminishing Fëanor’s responsibility and shortcomings, but without Melkor, Finwë would still be alive and the silmarils would still be safe in their iron safe.

Which The Silmarillion cover do you appreciate the most and why? I have linked some covers for you to check out, but if you know of any variations not listed there, please do share!😊💎💎💎

Tolkiens »Der Herr der Ringe« ruht auf einem mächtigen Fundament. Alles, was ich danach an Fantasy gelesen habe, trippelt bestenfalls auf dünnem Eis. Pantin / Provini graben tief in Tolkiens Werk. Vielleicht gibt irgendwann eine Übersetzung?!

I haven't had much time to research answers to the questions that readers submit to the Middle-earth Blog this year. So to help me lighten the load, I've started a new series called Middle-earth Trivia (it requires less research). This is this first post in the series: "Little Known Details About Tolkien Elves"

A couple of years ago I painted a #Mairon to practice composition, and it bothered me that I gave him black hair for sake of creating a striking image, even if I imagine him with fire hair (literally XD)

So here I come with another version of the one and only #Sauron - I hope you like it 💙
