Fëanor was seriously a total dick. That he ever got held up as any kind of hero by anyone just goes to show that Elvish Wisdom ain't all it's cracked up to be.
I think there's another dialect (I believe an English one), where "I'm after [FOO]." means "I'm looking for [FOO]." Possibly the source of that confusion on Eddings's part.
