Category: Science Fiction & Fantasy

Binding: Mass mark
Unfinished Tales is a collection of narratives ranging in time
from the Elder Days of Middle-earth to the end of the War of the
Ring, and provides those who have read The Lord of the Rings with
a whole collection of background and new stories from the
twentieth century's most acclaimed popular author. The book
concentrates on the realm of Middle-earth and comprises such
elements as Gandalf's lively account of how it was that he came
to send the Dwarves to the celebrated party at Bag-End, the
emergence of the sea-god Ulmo before the eyes of Tuor on the
coast of Beleriand, and an exact description of the military
organization of the Riders of Rohan. Unfinished Tales also
contains the only story about the long ages of Numenor before its
downfall, and all that is known about such matters as the Five
Wizards, the Palantiri and the legend of Amroth. The tales were
collated and edited by JRR Tolkien's son and literary heir,
Christopher Tolkien, who provides a short commentary on each
story, helping the reader to fill in the gaps and put each story
into the context of the rest of his father's writings.
