Unfinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-earth

This book is a compilation of narratives and essays that J.R. R.

Tolkien left unfinished at the time of his death.

Edited by Christopher Tolkien, it includes stories and historical accounts that expand on the world of Middle-earth, covering events from the Elder Days to the end of the War of the Ring.

The collection provides detailed information about characters, events, and places mentioned briefly in 'The Lord of the Rings' and 'The Silmarillion', such as the origins of Gandalf, the death of Isildur, and the founding of Rohan.

Each tale is accompanied by extensive notes and commentary by Christopher Tolkien, helping to contextualize the stories within the broader legendarium of Middle-earth.
