Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression with '1' on copyright page. Some very slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, not price clipped (£18.99), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy, with foldout map at…rear as called for. 315pp, lavishly illustrated by Alan Lee. Painstakingly restored from Tolkien's manuscripts and presented for the first time as a fully continuous and standalone story, the epic tale of 'The Children of Hurin' will reunite fans of 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings' with Elves and Men, dragons and dwarves, eagles and orcs, and the rich landscape and characters unique to Tolkien. There are tales of Middle earth from times long before 'The Lord of the Rings', and the story told in this book is set in the great country that lay beyond the Grey Havens in the West, lands where Treebeard once walked, but which were drowned in the great cataclysm that ended the First Age of the World. In that remote time Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in the vast fortress of Angband, the Hells of Iron, in the North and the tragedy of Turin and his sister Nienor unfolded within the shadow of the fear of Angband and the war waged by Morgoth against the lands and secret cities of the Elves. Their brief and passionate lives were dominated by the elemental hatred that Morgoth bore them as the children of Hurin, the man who had dared to defy and to scorn him to his face. Against them he sent his most formidable servant, Glaurung, a powerful spirit in the form of a huge wingless dragon of fire. Into this story of brutal conquest and flight, of forest hiding places and pursuit, of resistance with lessening hope, the Dark Lord and the Dragon enter in direly articulate form. Sardonic and mocking, Glaurung manipulated the fates of Turin and Nienor by lies of diabolic cunning and guile, and the curse of Morgoth was fulfilled. The earliest versions of this story by J.R.R. Tolkien go back to the end of the First World War and the years that followed, but long afterwards, when 'The Lord of the Rings' was finished, he wrote it anew and greatly enlarged it in complexities of motive and character: it became the dominant story in his later work on Middle earth. But he could not bring it to a final and finished form. In this book his son Christopher Tolkien (1924-2020), has constructed, after long study of the manuscripts, a coherent narrative without any editorial invention. Jacket and illustrations by Alan Lee (illustratore).

Please refer to the photographs for further details) 288 pp. First UK edition, first printing Signed dedicated copy by the illustrator Alan Lee "to Michael with best wishes" Beren and Lúthien is a collection of writings by J.R.R. Tolkien, edited by Christopher Tolkien as a single book, published on 1 June 2017. It contains the various versions of the story previously published throughout the volumes of The History of Middle-earth. The common plot is the story of the love and adventures of the mortal Man Beren and the immortal Elf-maiden Lúthien, and how they stole a Silmaril from the Dark Lord Morgoth's crown. Tolkien wrote several versions of their story, the latest published in The Silmarillion, although the tale is also mentioned in The Lord of the Rings. The story is one of three "great tales" set in the First Age of Tolkien's Middle-earth, the other two being The Children of Húrin and The Fall of Gondolin. The tale of Beren and Lúthien was, or became, an essential element in the evolution of the mythology of ancient Arda (the Creation through the First Age) conceived by J.R.R. Tolkien, which were published as The Silmarillion. Returning from France and the battle of the Somme at the end of 1916, he wrote the tale in the following year. Essential to the story, and never changed, is the fate that shadowed the love of Beren and Lúthien: for Beren was a mortal man, but Lúthien was an immortal elf. Her father, a great elvish lord, in deep opposition to Beren, imposed on him an impossible task that he must perform before he might wed Lúthien. This is the kernel of the legend; and it leads to the supremely heroic attempt of Beren and Lúthien together to rob the greatest of all evil beings, Melkor, called Morgoth, the Black Enemy, of a Silmaril. In this book Christopher Tolkien has attempted to extract the story of Beren and Lúthien from the comprehensive work in which it was embedded; but that story was itself changing as it developed new associations within the larger history. To show something of the process whereby this legend of Middle-earth evolved over the years, he has told the story in his father's own words by giving, first, its original form, and then passages in prose and verse from later texts that illustrate the narrative as it changed. Presented together for the first time, they reveal aspects of the story, both in event and in narrative immediacy, that were afterwards lost. Beren et Lúthien est un recueil d'écrits de J.R.R. Tolkien, édité par Christopher Tolkien en un volume unique, publié le 1er juin 2017. Il rassemble les différentes versions de l'histoire précédemment parues dans les volumes de The History of Middle-earth. L'intrigue commune est celle de l'amour et des aventures de l'homme mortel Beren et de l'elfe immortelle Lúthien, et de leur exploit consistant à dérober un Silmaril à la couronne du Seigneur des Ténèbres, Morgoth. Tolkien rédigea plusieurs versions de ce récit, dont la plus récente fut publiée dans Le Silmarillion, bien que l'histoire soit également évoquée dans Le Seigneur des Anneaux. Ce récit est l'un des trois « grands contes » situés au Premier Âge de la Terre du Milieu selon Tolkien, les deux autres étant Les Enfants de Húrin et La Chute de Gondolin. Nice copy, signed by Alan Lee. With illustrations by Alan Lee. (illustratore). Signé par l'illustrateur.

This is another paragraph Book Description: J.R.R. Tolkien s writings on the Second Age of Middle-earth, collected for the first time in one deluxe slipcased edition. J.R.R. Tolkien famously described the Second Age of Middle-earth as a dark age, and not very much of its history is (or need be) told . And for many years readers would need to be content with the tantalizing glimpses of it found within the pages of The Lord of the Rings and its appendices, including the forging of the Rings of Power, the building of the Barad-dûr and the rise of Sauron. It was not until Christopher Tolkien published The Silmarillion after his father s death that a fuller story could be told. Although much of the book s content concerned the First Age of Middle-earth, there were at its close two key works that revealed the tumultuous events concerning the rise and fall of the island of Númenor. Gifted to the Men of Middle-earth as a reward for aiding in the defeat of the Dark Lord Morgoth, the kingdom became a seat of influence and wealth; but as the Númenóreans power increased, the seed of their downfall would inevitably be sown, culminating in the Last Alliance of Elves and Men. Further insight into the Second Age would be revealed in subsequent publications, first in Unfinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-earth, then expanded upon in Christopher Tolkien s twelve-volume The History of Middle-earth. Now, adhering to the timeline of The Tale of Years in the appendices to The Lord of the Rings, editor Brian Sibley has assembled into one volume a new chronicle of the Second Age of Middle-earth, told substantially in the words of J.R.R. Tolkien from the various published texts, with 10 new paintings and 65 pencil drawings by Alan Lee. This deluxe slipcased edition is quarterbound in terracotta and printed on heavyweight acid-free paper, stamped in gold foil on dove grey boards with a unique motif designed by Alan Lee, includes a ribbon marker and is housed in a custom-built matching slipcase.

(23 x 15 cm)… dust jacket mylar protected (as new) 304 pp. Golden decorated black slipcase. Sticker on dustjacket "SIGNED BY THE ILLUSTRATOR". First UK edition, first printing Signed copy by the illustrator Alan Lee In the Tale of The Fall of Gondolin are two of the greatest powers in the world. There is Morgoth of the uttermost evil, unseen in this story but ruling over a vast military power from his fortress of Angband. Deeply opposed to Morgoth is Ulmo, second in might only to Manwë, chief of the Valar; he is called the Lord of Waters, of all seas, lakes, and rivers under the sky. But he works in secret in Middle-earth to support the Noldor, the kindred of the Elves among whom were numbered Húrin and Túrin Turambar. Central to this enmity of the gods is the city of Gondolin, beautiful but undiscoverable. It was built and peopled by Noldorin Elves who, when they dwelt in Valinor, the land of the gods, rebelled against their rule and fled to Middle-earth. Turgon King of Gondolin is hated and feared above all his enemies by Morgoth, who seeks in vain to discover the marvellously hidden city, while the gods in Valinor in heated debate largely refuse to intervene in support of Ulmo's desires and designs. Into this world comes Tuor, cousin of Túrin, the instrument of Ulmo's designs. Guided unseen by him Tuor sets out from the land of his birth on the fearful journey to Gondolin, and in one of the most arresting moments in the history of Middle-earth the sea-god himself appears to him, rising out of the ocean in the midst of a storm. In Gondolin he becomes great; he is wedded to Idril, Turgon's daughter, and their son is Eärendil, whose birth and profound importance in days to come is foreseen by Ulmo. At last comes the terrible ending. Morgoth learns through an act of supreme treachery all that he needs to mount a devastating attack on the city, with Balrogs and dragons and numberless Orcs. After a minutely observed account of the fall of Gondolin, the tale ends with the escape of Tuor and Idril, with the child Eärendil, looking back from a cleft in the mountains as they flee southward, at the blazing wreckage of their city. They were journeying into a new story, the Tale of Eärendil, which Tolkien never wrote, but which is sketched out in this book from other sources. Following his presentation of Beren and Lúthien Christopher Tolkien has used the same 'history in sequence' mode in the writing of this edition of The Fall of Gondolin. In the words of J.R.R. Tolkien, it was 'the first real story of this imaginary world' and, together with Beren and Lúthien and The Children of Húrin, he regarded it as one of the three 'Great Tales' of the Elder Days. J.R.R. Tolkien was born on 3rd January 1892 in Bloemfontein. After serving in the First World War, Tolkien embarked upon a distinguished academic career and was recognised as one of the finest philologists in the world. He is, however, best known as the creator of Middle-earth and author of such classic and extraordinary works of fiction as The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion. His books have been translated into more than 60 languages and have sold many millions of copies worldwide. He was awarded a CBE, and an honorary Doctorate of Letters from Oxford University in 1972. He died in 1973 at the age of 81. Christopher Tolkien, born on 21st November 1924, is the third son of J.R.R. Tolkien. Appointed by Tolkien to be his literary executor, he has devoted himself since his father's death in 1973 to the editing and publication of unpublished writings, notably The Silmarillion and the collections entitled Unfinished Tales and The History of Middle-earth. He and his wife Baillie have lived in France since 1975. Nice copy "SIGNED BY THE ILLUSTRATOR" in editor slipcase. With illustrations by Alan Lee. (illustratore). Signé par l'illustrateur.

(23 x 15 cm) dust jacket mylar protected (as new) 320 pp. First UK edition, first printing Signed copy by the illustrator Alan Lee. The Children of Húrin, also known as Narn i Chîn Húrin: The Tale of the Children of Húrin, is a novel based on J.R.R. Tolkien's writings, edited by his son Christopher Tolkien and published on 17 April 2007. The main text had been previously published as "Narn i Hîn Húrin" in Unfinished Tales, here edited by Christopher to form a consistent narrative as an independent work. The first and most subsequent editions include illustrations by Alan Lee. The plot consists in the expanded account of the story of the wanderings and deeds of Túrin Turambar, son of Húrin, and his sister Niënor, in their struggle against fate (and the curse cast upon Húrin's kin). It is considered to be among the darkest examples of any of Tolkien's works. The story is one of three "great tales" set in the First Age of Tolkien's Middle-earth, the other two being Beren and Lúthien and The Fall of Gondolin. Les Enfants de Húrin, également connu sous le titre Narn i Chîn Húrin : Le Conte des Enfants de Húrin, est un roman fondé sur les écrits de J. R. R. Tolkien, édité par son fils Christopher Tolkien et publié le 17 avril 2007. Le texte principal avait déjà été publié sous le titre Narn i Hîn Húrin dans Contes et légendes inachevés, mais il est ici repris et révisé par Christopher afin de constituer un récit cohérent et autonome. La première édition, ainsi que la plupart des éditions ultérieures, comporte des illustrations d'Alan Lee. L'intrigue consiste en un récit développé des errances et des exploits de Túrin Turambar, fils de Húrin, et de sa sœur Niënor, dans leur lutte contre le destin (et contre la malédiction qui frappe la lignée de Húrin). L'ouvrage est considéré comme l'un des récits les plus sombres de l'œuvre de Tolkien. Cette histoire fait partie des trois « grands contes » situés au Premier Âge de la Terre du Milieu de Tolkien, les deux autres étant Beren et Lúthien et La Chute de Gondolin. A nice copy, signed by the illustrator Alan Lee. With illustrations by Alan Lee. (illustratore). Signé par l'illustrateur.

Original navy blue cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper. Bright, crisp copy of the domestic edition (for UK only) with price on front fold-in. Published posthumously in 1977 by George Allen & Unwin and edited by his son Christopher Tolkien, The Silmarillion is J.R.R. Tolkien's epic mythological history of Middle-earth, spanning from the creation of the world (Arda) through the First and Second Ages, long before the events of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Structured in five parts—including the divine Ainulindalë, the tragic saga of the Silmarils, and the fall of Númenor—it weaves a grand narrative of gods, Elves, Men, and dark powers, culminating in the rise of Sauron and the dawn of the Third Age. This foundational work, completed from Tolkien's manuscripts and notes, is essential to understanding the deep legendarium that underpins his entire fictional universe. Publié à titre posthume en 1977 par George Allen & Unwin et édité par son fils Christopher Tolkien, Le Silmarillion est la grande fresque mythologique de J.R.R. Tolkien retraçant l'histoire de la Terre du Milieu, depuis la création du monde (Arda) jusqu'à la fin du Second Âge, bien avant les événements de Bilbo le Hobbit et du Seigneur des Anneaux. Structuré en cinq parties — dont la divine Ainulindalë, la tragique saga des Silmarils et la chute de Númenor —, l'ouvrage déploie un récit grandiose peuplé de dieux, d'Elfes, d'Hommes et de puissances obscures, et s'achève sur l'ascension de Sauron et l'aube du Troisième Âge. Complété à partir des manuscrits et notes de Tolkien, ce texte fondamental est essentiel pour comprendre l'univers légendaire qui sous-tend toute son œuvre. Nice copy. With illustrations by Alan Lee.
