Yes, I did feel that way! After reading The Hobbit, I thought it was a cool story, after LotR, I thought it was the pinnacle of Middle Earth history, but after starting to read the Silm, I realized it really wasn't. It was a turning point, but not the climax. I found it a little disappointing that the Unfinished Tales dealt almost entirely with the Silm.

I missed the characters that we really got to know.
