I like all the HoME books thus far. 'Return of the shadow' makes me appreciate LoTR more, and gives me an insight on how it was developed, whislt BoLT2 has the Fall of Gondolin, which is great, but my favourites have to be HoME 10-12. They expand the Silmarillion for me, and give more info on the Noldor, my favourite characters and have some great pyschogical essays, like Myths Transfromed, and some great unpublished, new works, like 'Athrabeth Finrod ah andreth' and 'tal-elmar' and 'the shibboleth of Feanor'.
