About melkor’s letters

Welcome to Melkor’s Letters, where I discuss Lord of the Rings and Tolkien’s Legendarium in Melkor’s perspective. I decided to write Melkor’s Letters in the spirit of CS Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters (which just so happens to have been dedicated to Tolkien himself). My purpose is to highlight the good and evil that many fans don’t realize is prevalent in Middle-earth and Tolkien’s Legendarium.

I decided to use textual evidence in works from Tolkien’s Middle-earth Legendarium such as from The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings, the Silmarillion and the like – to view the events in Melkor’s perspective addressing the messages to Sauron – as Sauron’s motives are primarily driven by Melkor his master. After being asked and convinced by Melkor to intervene in the ways opposite of Eru, Sauron will take after him to seek his power through the tactics described, such as the dissociation of fellowship and seizing of power, especially when it concerns The One Ring which he forged.
