The first of a two-book set that contains the early myths and
legends which led to the writing of Tolkien's epic tale of war, The
Silmarillion. The Book of Lost Tales stands at the beginning of the
entire conception of Middle-earth and Valinor for the Tales were
the first form of the myths and legends that came to be called The
Silmarillion. Embedded in English legend and English association,
they are set in the narrative frame of a great westward voyage over
the Ocean by a mariner named Eriol to the lonely Isle where the
Elves dwelt; from them he learned their true history, the Lost
Tales of Elfinesse. In the Tales are found the earliest accounts of
Gods and Elves, Dwarves, Balrogs and Orcs; of the Silmarils and the
Two Trees of Valinor; of the geography and cosmology of Tolkien's
invented world. This series of fascinating books has now been
repackaged to complement the distinctive and classic style of the
'black cover' A-format paperbacks of The Hobbit, The Lord of the
Rings, The Silmarillion and Unfinished Tales.
