For readers who wish The Lord of the Rings would never end, here's reason to rejoice! Compiled by Tolkien's son Christopher, these wonderful myths and legends were begun in 1916 and left incomplete. Together with fascinating commentary, they provide delightful background and insight into the world of elves, dwarves, balrogs, orcs, silmarils, and more. 297 pages, hardcover from Houghton Mifflin.
