Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Apr 12, 2007 Type: User Review a review for the curious LOTR fan

Taking place in the distant past of the Middle Earth most people know from the "Lord of the Rings," the "Children of Hurin" is a poignantly beautiful gem from JRR Tolkien's literary world. Before great cataclysms that altered the very substance of...

From: Posted: Apr 28, 2007 Type: User Review For the aficianados only!

I hate to write a negative review. After finishing the Silmarillion, I was so excited to receive this book that I ripped open the box from Amazon and started reading immediately.

While reading Children of Hurin, I kept thinking that...

Review from a shopper who was 'On the Fence'
From: Posted: Apr 18, 2007 Type: User Review What I expected disappointing.

Children of Hurin centres its story on Turin a most human character with inherent flaws. The book itself is begins many thousands of years before the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings and if you have just read these two works then you will be very...

From: Posted: Apr 29, 1998 Type: User Review Readers of Robert Jordan Beware!!

Tolkien's works are classic fantasy. Robert Jordan is modern fantasy. They are two very different genres with an equally avid, but extremely different following. A spare few can truly enjoy both. I was deeply disappointed that I could not like...

This particular book is slow to start but leads up to a great ending. The ending should have been much longer and the rest of it a lot shorter. The last bit was really rushed. The part of it that was actually worth reading was only a couple of...

So many middle books lag -- just look at A FEAST FOR CROWS by George RR Martin -- but this one doesn't! It goes somewhere with likable characters that develop with each page turned.

The book endlessly repeats its theme, so much so that it marginalizes its subject. It's a story that can be told once and then elaborated on with supporting detail, which seems to have escaped Mr. Quinn

I love fantasy novels and some of Neil Gaman's other works (such as American Gods) but this book is quite different. I found it's style and humor difficult to read and appreciate, and put it down after about a hundred pages.
