Fans of J.R.R. Tolkien can look forward to two new book box sets: The Tolkien Myths and Legends Box Set releasing on June 10, featuring lesser-known works, and The Great Tales of Middle-earth releasing on August 19, highlighting the final novels of Middle-earth. These hardcover collections, noted for their lavish designs, expand the existing series launched by The History of Middle-earth, edited by Christopher Tolkien. His efforts have transformed Tolkien's unpublished legendarium into a treasured 12-volume series, enriching the understanding of Middle-earth's intricate history.
Tolkien's extensive notes and legendarium building created Middle-earth as a character, culminating in a detailed backstory lasting over 6,500 years across three ages.
The upcoming box sets showcase Tolkien's lesser-known works and the final three prose novels, featuring lavish artwork and packaging, appealing to dedicated collectors.
Christopher Tolkien spent years curating and editing the vast unpublished backstories into manageable volumes, transforming his father's legendarium into a beloved 12-volume series.
The new editions will release in 2024, continuing a series that began with The History of Middle-earth, now celebrated in beautiful hardcover formats.
