Isildur

For you who watched Lord of the Rings, you must know about Isildur Elendilion. Then, for you who haven't watched it yet, hm maybe it will be difficult to explain haha. Aragorn which is the King of Gondor (and also the main character in the movie) is descendant of Isildur.

So, I bought this book a few months ago (because there's a great sale in Gramedia haha). At first, I wasn't too interested with that book. Then I started to read a few weeks ago and I just finished the book yesterday. It was the greatest story I've ever read. I feel like I'm watching a movie and not reading a book.


What's the story about then? It's too complicated to explain or just tell you a little bit of it. The point of the story is to tell Isildur struggling to kill Sauron and to destroy the ring. But in the end, Isildur wants to keep the ring, though Elrond Halfelven have told him to destroy it.

In this book, you'll be introduced to Nenya, Vilya and Narya which happen to be the ring of Three. Vilya which represents air, belongs to Gil-Galad (but in the battle, Gil-Galad asked Elrond to keep it with him), Nenya which represents water, belongs to Galadriel (it said the most beautiful elf), and Narya which represents fire, belongs to Cirdan (the Shipwright). The story of Sauron's betrayal to Celebrimbor is also explained in this book. Although it's not Tolkien who wrote it, but the story is as amazing as Tolkien have wrote. For you who are a big fan of Lord of the Rings and other Tolkien's tale, you have to read it.

Ciao!
