- IBDoF Note: This book is primarily of interest to serious Tolkien fans, and academicians only. As the title indicates, this is a collection (assembled posthumously by Christopher Tolkien from his father"s notes) of various unfinished literary fragments from different ages of Middle-earth ranging from the First Age until Sauron"s defeat. Includes detailed editorial commentary by Christopher Tolkien, which helps put these various previously unpublished fragments into their proper context. Christopher Tolkien"s efforts to assemble and publish this book set the state for his subsequent (and far more substantial) project to describe the literary evolution of Middle Earth as a while, in his 12 volume "History of Middle Earth" series. -- Brad
