The popular paperback edition of this fascinating collection of
stories, which continue the tales of The Lord of the Rings and The
Silmarillion and contains an alternative version of The Children of
Hurin. 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.
