Master of Doom, and by Doom Mastered
O! That I may not covet thee!
I always liked Tuor, but not how I loved Turin son of Hurin. I'm thrilled to finally get the chance to dig all the way into the Narn i Hin Hurin as it was meant to be read, rather than gather gleanings from The Silmarillion and Unfinished Tales. Just when I thought I already had too much to read for the summer!

If I had to pick a section of a Tolkien piece, I'd say when Illuvatar sings the Ainur into existence. As a volume though, hands down, the Hobbit.

I'm going to second the previous post. Illuvatar singing the Ainur into existence is a masterpiece. As a whole, I have to go with the trilogy.

Oh come on you two. Are you really gonna go with a safe answer like the Creation Song? What about when the Valar come in judgment on Morgoth on his black fortress in the North?! Ok fine, you can have your wonderful, beautiful creation, but I'll take my death and destruction served piping hot, thank you very much...
