Welcome to the "Fantasy and Historical Fiction" Reading Circle of the Social Book Club!

We will meet to discuss J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy novel "The Children of Húrin" (315 pages), edited posthumously by his son Christopher Tolkien.

The meeting point is at JO&JOE on the 5th floor. Drinks and some food can be bought there, so if possible please buy something for reasons of politeness, if you can afford it, since they provide the space for free.

Book Description:

Six thousand years before the One Ring is destroyed, Middle-earth lies under the shadow of the Dark Lord Morgoth. The greatest warriors among elves and men have perished, and all is in darkness and despair. But a deadly new leader rises, Túrin, son of Húrin, and with his grim band of outlaws begins to turn the tide in the war for Middle-earth -- awaiting the day he confronts his destiny and the deadly curse laid upon him.
