Well, that was cheery. This is very much tell don’t show, so your enjoyment will depend on your tolerance for “And in X did Y slay Z” declamations. Personally, my tolerance has obviously dropped way off since the days when I had the patience to slog through The Silmarillion. At least it was relatively short. One for the completionists.
