I first tried to read Silm when i was 11, i had read the hobbit and LotR and loved them so i wanted to learn more about its history. But at this age i don't think i was mature enough to appreciate it or even understand what was going esp. with all the differrent names and places. But a few monthes ago i decide to brave it as i'm 18. A got addicted to it and Unfinished Tales and have read them both 3 times since the beggining of the year and i've started on the History series.
I think it was the movie that really got me interested again in finding out about the history of the first age and before.
