Although the information wasn't exactly new, your presentation was very clear and almost lyrical. I enjoyed it almost as much as a piece of fiction. Naturally, I had hope that you'd located a bit of info I'd overlooked, that suddenly someone would say precisely who Legolas's mother was, or when he was born. There are so many mysteries surrounding this character, and I've heard theories that the vagueness was deliberate: so that hte Elf in the Company would not be a named elf, per se. He would be representative of all elves: Eldar and Teleri, young and old, sea-obsessed and tree-loving. Well, anyway. I'm off on a tangent. Thank you so much for taking the time to write it all down. And for doing so in such an engaging essay voice!

Hmm...I am very pleased with the content and delivery of this essay. Still wondering why it doesn't have more reviews though. Excellent piece of work. I gather bits and pieces of 'Legolas' when I read Tolkien's work, but I've never had it spelled out so plainly before. Thanks! Very Happy smiley face

I thoroughly enjoyed this. I loved how you delivered this essay as well. Excellent piece! As BB said, I'm wondering why more people haven't given their opinions on it. Thanks for giving me some new ideas that I hadn't noticed before!

Well-written and informative. I've been on the hunt for elven information as of late and this helped clear up elven history for me. Excellent work.
