Go on a beautifully illustrated journey through the Second Age of Middleearths history.The Second Age has long been a dark age for readers of J. R. R. Tolkien, as none of his fiction provides an allencompassing narrative of the events of that 3,500year period of Middleearths history. Only through the efforts of Tolkiens son Christopher has the public been able to appreciate the full grandeur of the Second Age, which is revealed in Tolkiens meticulous notes and unfinished works. The Second Age is made up of two great narrative channels: on the one hand the rise and cataclysmic downfall of the island kingdom of Nmenor and its aftermath, and on the other the forging of the Rings of Power and the rise of the new dark lord, Sauron. Illustrated World of Tolkien: The Second Age includes more than 120 illustrations depicting the characters and events of this periodalong with insightful commentary from renowned Tolkien scholar David Daymaking it an essential addition to the library of every Lord of the Rings fan.This work is unofficial and is not authorized by the Tolkien Estate or HarperCollins Publishers.
