The Silmarillion: Illustrated by J.R.R. Tolkien

Originally priced at $75.00, now save 57% and get it for just $32.08 at Amazon. The Silmarillion delves into the early history of the fictional universe of Eä, encompassing lands such as Valinor, Beleriand, Númenor, and Middle-Earth. The book is structured into five distinct parts, offering deep lore exposition, extensive historical accounts of the First Age, and summaries of the Third Age stories familiar from The Lord of the Rings.

The Lord of the Rings franchise extends beyond literature, with notable adaptations including Monolith's game Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, crossover cards in Magic: The Gathering, and the live-action series Rings of Power on Prime Video. In IGN's review of Rings of Power season 2, they noted, "[Season 2] does a great job portraying Sauron’s machinations and his impact on those he manipulates, but too much time is spent on disconnected subplots delivering only mediocre intrigue and thin characters."
