I've already read The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Children of Húrin, and I'm considering where to go from here. I'm currently thinking about reading The Fall of Gondolin, The Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales and Beren and Lúthien and then leave my Tolkien journey at that, at least for a while.
I feel like a logical order would be to go to The Fall of Gondolin next, but I never see this recommendation anywhere; generally the advice is to read The Silmarillion first. I know that it's a little different, in not providing one but several versions of the story, but still, doesn't it make sense from a storyline perspective to read The Fall of Gondolin immediately after The Children of Húrin? (I suppose The Silmarillion could be read before both of them, but that ship has sailed.) Or is The Silmarillion required to make any sense of it?
