However, though his name is renowned throughout literature, his true character is not. Though he performed many heroic acts, he was also one of... Continue Reading →
Feanor from J.R.R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion is one of those characters where you either hate him or you love him to bits and will die on that hill.
