Heirs of Durin

Most of the information on this site pertains to The Hobbit, both movie and book, with a particular focus on Thorin Oakenshield and his close kin. It is a source of fan-fiction, art, and discussion of Tolkien’s dwarven characters. This is a 100% fan-run site and has no official connections. As always, I am at your service, D.J.Email.

Books by J.R.R. Tolkien - Tolkien reading order

Tolkien - Tolkien reading order (12.08.10 by Pieter Collier) - 24 Comments Probably the second most frequently asked question I get is the order in which to read Tolkien's works. The first being an enquiry about the value of a particular Tolkien book. The question about the reading order is however a complex one, and probably more difficult to answer than to determine the value of a collectible Tolkien book. When you read Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, or when you watch the Peter Jackson movie adaptation, you always get a hint of the vast history that shines through and indeed when Tolkien wrote The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, he was already working for many years at the underlying mythologies; the stories he actually longed to write, The Silmarillion.
