J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle Earth has become one of literary’s greatest fantasy worlds, and took decades of work to create. After a century of remaining relatively unseen by the public, one of the works that inspired the world of Lord of the Rings is being released.
Beren and Lúthien has gone on sale to mark the 10th anniversary of the last Middle Earth book, The Children of Húrin. Edited by the author’s son Christopher Tolkien, the story focusses on the two titular lovers, a mortal man and an immortal elf. Lúthien’s father will only allow his daughter to marry the man if he can steal something from Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, and master of Sauron.
One version of the story was included in The Silmarillion. The new publication features the original story along with an insightful narrative into how the story transformed written by Christopher.
