Printing Details
Hardback in dustwrapper. 23 × 14.5cm, 365pp + map.
The Silmarillion is an account of the Elder Days, of the First Age of Tolkien’s world. It is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part. The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-Earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor.
Condition
Very good condition. Minimal bumping to the boards, clean pages and strong binding. The map is in good order (there's a little wear where bound in but no tearing). Slight dusting to page edges and a bit of fading to the wrapper's spine but otherwise remaining in strong readable condition.
As of July 2026, books remain duty-free. The price of the book incurs no extra US import fees.
