Synopsis

The Fall of Numenor and Other Tales from the Second Age of Middle-earth is a 2022 collection edited by Brian Sibley, assembling J.R.R. Tolkien's writings about the Second Age from The Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, The History of Middle-earth, and The Nature of Middle-earth into one continuous account. It follows the "Tale of Years" framework from the Appendices of The Lord of the Rings and is illustrated by Alan Lee.

Where it sits

Notes

  • Ed. Brian Sibley; Second Age texts arranged chronologically, largely re-presenting previously published material.

Neighbouring works

Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings and are never conflated: a book's place in one says nothing about its place in the other.
