Does anyone as but me find it slightly annoying that Tolkien includes so many spoilers in his work, like 'my heart foretells... yadda yadda' The worst one I find is the one when Feanor dies and he sees Thangorodrim and with the foresight of death knows no force of the Noldor could defeat them. I thought of that quote throughout the Nirnaeth and it destroyed any suspense for me whether they were going to win it or not.
On another I know Tolkien cannot be blamed for it because he's dead but is it really necessary for the Chapter title for the chapter in which Beleg dies, in 'The Children of Hurin', to be 'The Death of Beleg'. If I was a first time reader that would have completly spoiled it for me, having previously thought Beleg and Turin would have been merry friends forever...
