J.R.R. Tolkien worked on three “Great Tales” throughout his life. Fragments of these great sagas of Middle-earth’s First Age have appeared in The Silmarillion and other books, but never as complete entities. Now, Christopher Tolkien—editor, scholar, linguist, and his father’s foremost fan—has edited together the greatest of those tales from his father’s many versions into that most unlikely of things: a new, complete J.R.R. Tolkien novel.
Before the Ring
In an area of Middle-earth that was to be drowned before Hobbits even appeared, and at a time when the mighty Sauron is simply a lieutenant to the evil Morgoth, there is one man, Húrin, brave enough to defy this Lord of Shadows. Húrin was a titan among men—but the cursed sworn upon him by Morgoth would visit his children in an epic battle against the stratagems of Glaurung, Father of Dragons.
Taking us to an age that pre-dates Tolkien’s most famous work, this thrilling take—in his original words and based on his most far-reaching ideas—brings the Ring full circle.
