About Me

I'm a great Tolkien fan. PJ's adaptations of the well-known The Lord of the Rings Trilogy sparked my interest for J.R.R. Tolkien's works themselves. I started with TLOTR and moved on to The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. Throughout the last 5 years I've read The Children of Húrin, The Fall of Gondolin and Beren and Lúthien (as well as a couple of volumes from The History of Middle-earth collection). I'm from Romania, so most of my early bibliography is in my native language.

From time to time I like to either help out on wikis or providing answers/debating on Quora.

My favourite characters by are the Enemy, Gandalf the Grey and Maeglin; the last of whom I identify with and feel pity for due to his unfortunate passion for another soul (in his case Idril).
