Into this world comes Tuor, cousin of Túrin, and guided unseen by Ulmo he sets out on the fearful journey to Gondolin to warn them of their coming doom.

I listened to the book at the same time as I followed the text in the book. I want to know how things are prenounced! The story itself isn’t… like… amazing. But it’s good and a bit exiting. But it is in the way that Tolkien writes. He MADE the language beautiful. He can describe a horrifying bolrog in the same detailed and wonderful way as he does with the fair elves. And don’t even get me started on the narrators. Omg. So. Amazing.
