  1. Bhupesh

    Absolutely loved seeing the seeds of Tolkien’s world take root. Some tales are more compelling than others, but overall a fantastic read.

  2. Utkarsh Pandey

    This is the best I’ve read from Tolkien. A must-read if you are a big fan of the world and want to learn more about it.

  3. Saurabh Singh Rathour

    Struggled to connect with the characters. The stories felt disjointed. Probably better for academic study than casual reading.

  4. Parth Goel

    Provides a unique glimpse into Tolkien’s creative process. At times repetitive but also rewarding.

  5. Aman Mittal

    A bit of a mixed bag. Some stories captivated me, while others left me cold. Ultimately, glad I read it.

  6. Modit Johar

    The original ideas and concepts are super interesting. Christopher’s notes add a lot to understanding them. A solid buy.

  7. Aastha Jha

    A treasure trove for Tolkien scholars. The insights into the Silmarillion are invaluable. Prepare for a challenging read.

  8. Michael Harris Y

    A fascinating look at Tolkien’s early ideas. It’s rough around the edges but provides great insight into the development of Middle-earth.

  9. Akram Javid N

    Enjoyable but definitely shows its age. The writing style isn’t as polished as his later works. Still fascinating, though!

  10. Samarth Chopra

    It’s hard to get into and it’s pretty outdated in ways you wouldn’t imagine. I wouldn’t call it bad but not great.

  11. Saksham Verma

    Interesting for Tolkien completionists, but can be a bit dry and hard to follow at times. Still, a valuable piece of literary history.

  12. Vishwash Mishra

    A bit dense, but worth the effort for serious Tolkien fans. It’s like watching a master artist’s early sketches.

  13. Sumit Kumar Jayant

    Not for casual readers. This is deep lore and requires patience. However, the rewards are significant.

  14. Harshita Mehra

    This book is amazing, offering a wonderful insight of what middle earth could have been. A must buy book for Tolkien fans.

  15. Aastha Sinha

    Found it difficult to get through. The writing style felt unfinished. Only recommended for die-hard Tolkien fans.

  16. Ayush Jain

    Amazing to see how Tolkien’s imagination evolved. Some parts are brilliant, others feel like early drafts, but a must read!
