The Children of Hurin (2007),
Christopher Tolkien, ed. with Alan Lee, Illustrator)
The first complete book by J.R.R. Tolkien in three decades -- since
the publication of The Silmarillion in 1977 -- The Children
of Hurin reunites fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the
Rings with Elves and Men, dragons and Dwarves, Eagles and Orcs.
Presented for the first time as a complete, standalone story, this
stirring narrative will appeal to casual fans and expert readers
alike, returning them to the rich landscape and characters unique to
Tolkien.
The Children of Hurin, begun in 1918, was one of three 'Great
Tales' J.R.R. Tolkien worked on throughout his life, though he never
realized his ambition to see it published. Though familiar to many
fans from extracts and references within other Tolkien books, it has
long been assumed that the story would forever remain an unfinished
tale. Now reconstructed by Christopher Tolkien, painstakingly editing
together the complete work from his father's many drafts, this book is
the culmination of a tireless thirty-year endeavor by him to bring
J.R.R.Tolkien's vast body of unpublished work to a wide audience.
Having drawn the distinctive maps for the original The Lord of the
Rings more than 50 years ago, Christopher has also created a
detailed new map for this book. In addition, it will include a jacket
and color paintings by Alan Lee, illustrator of The Hobbit and
The Lord of the Rings Centenary Edition and Academy
Award-winning designer of the film trilogy.
