套書第一輯包含特別版本的《精靈寶鑽》（THE SILMARILLION）與《未完成的故事》（UNFINISHED TALES），重現首版文本，並附有兩冊《失落的傳說之書》（THE BOOK OF LOST TALES）。
**《精靈寶鑽》**記述了托爾金世界的長老時代，即第一紀元的故事。這是《魔戒》中的人物所追憶的遠古傳奇，其中一些角色，如愛隆與凱蘭崔爾，曾親身參與這段歷史。《精靈寶鑽》中的故事發生於第一黑暗魔君魔苟斯統治中土世界之時，高等精靈為了奪回盛載維林諾純淨之光的精靈寶鑽而對他發動戰爭。
**《未完成的故事》**是一部跨越時代的故事集，涵蓋了中土世界長老時代、第二紀元努曼諾爾的崛起以及魔戒之戰的結局。這些故事為已閱讀《哈比人歷險記》與《魔戒》的讀者提供了豐富的背景與全新內容，來自二十世紀最著名的奇幻作家之筆。
**《失落的傳說之書》**是整個中土世界與維林諾概念的起點，這些傳說是後來稱為《精靈寶鑽》的神話與傳奇的最初形式。這些故事融入了英國的傳說與意象，敘述了一位名為埃里歐的水手向西橫渡大洋，抵達精靈居住的孤島，並從精靈口中聆聽他們真實的歷史——那失落的精靈傳說。
這兩冊傳說之書包含了最早期關於眾神、精靈、矮人、炎魔與半獸人的敘述；記錄了精靈寶鑽與維林諾雙聖樹的故事，並描述了托爾金創造世界的地理與宇宙觀。
這四本書首次集結出版，完整呈現克里斯托弗．托爾金40年來致力於整理與發表其父J.R.R. 托爾金中土世界作品的職業生涯，這是一項獨一無二的成就，向奇幻文學史上最偉大的虛構世界致敬。
J.R.R. 托爾金的著作《努曼諾爾的陷落》（The Fall of Númenor）曾於2022年11月7日登上《星期日泰晤士報》暢銷書排行榜。
First in a series of hardback boxed sets celebrating the literary achievement of Christopher Tolkien, featuring double-sided dustjackets. Set 1 contains special editions of THE SILMARILLION and UNFINISHED TALES reproducing the first edition text, together with the two volumes of THE BOOK OF LOST TALES.
The Silmarillion is an account of the Elder Days, of the First Age of Tolkien’s World. It is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose events some of them, such as Elrond and Galadriel, took part. The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-Earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor.
Unfinished Tales is a collection of narratives ranging in time from the Elder Days of Middle-earth and the rise of Númenor in the Second Age to the end of the War of the Ring, and provides those who have read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings with a whole collection of background and new stories from the twentieth century’s most acclaimed popular author.
The Book of Lost Tales stands at the beginning of the entire conception of Middle-earth and Valinor for the Tales were the first form of the myths and legends that came to be called The Silmarillion. Embedded in English legend and English association, they are set in the narrative frame of a great westward voyage over the Ocean by a mariner named Eriol to the lonely Isle where the Elves dwelt; from them he learned their true history, the Lost Tales of Elfinesse.
In the two volumes of the Tales are found the earliest accounts of Gods and Elves, Dwarves, Balrogs and Orcs; of the Silmarils and the Two Trees of Valinor; of the geography and cosmology of Tolkien’s invented world.
Published together for the first time, these four books collect the beginning of Christopher Tolkien’s forty-year career devoted to presenting his father J.R.R. Tolkien’s writings on Middle-earth, a unique accomplishment that celebrates the greatest invented world in all of fantasy literature.
J.R.R. Tolkien's book 'The Fall of Númenor' was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 07-11-2022.

作者介紹
John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born on the 3 January 1892 at Bloemfontein in the Orange Free State, but at the age of four he and his brother were taken back to England by their mother. After his father’s death the family moved to Sarehole, on the south-eastern edge of Birmingham. Tolkien spent a happy childhood in the countryside and his sensibility to the rural landscape can clearly be seen in his writing and his pictures.
His mother died when he was only twelve and both he and his brother were made wards of the local priest and sent to King Edward’s School, Birmingham, where Tolkien shone in his classical work. After completing a First in English at Oxford, Tolkien married Edith Bratt. He was also commissioned in the Lancashire Fusiliers and fought in the battle of the Somme. After the war, he obtained a post on the New English Dictionary and began to write the mythological and legendary cycle which he originally called The Book of Lost Tales but which eventually became known as The Silmarillion.
In 1920 Tolkien was appointed Reader in English Language at the University of Leeds which was the beginning of a distinguished academic career culminating with his election as Rawlinson and Bosworth Professor of Anglo-Saxon at Oxford. Meanwhile Tolkien wrote for his children and told them the story of The Hobbit. It was his publisher, Stanley Unwin, who asked for a sequel to The Hobbit and gradually Tolkien wrote The Lord of the Rings, a huge story that took twelve years to complete and which was not published until Tolkien was approaching retirement. After retirement Tolkien and his wife lived near Oxford, but then moved to Bournemouth. Tolkien returned to Oxford after his wife’s death in 1971. He died on 2 September 1973 leaving The Silmarillion to be edited for publication by his son, Christopher.
Christopher Tolkien
Christopher Tolkien, born on 21 November 1924, is the third son of J.R.R. Tolkien. During the Second World War he served in the Royal Air Force and the Fleet Air Arm as a pilot. At the end of the war he returned to Oxford University and became a Fellow and Tutor in English of New College in 1964, lecturing in the University on early English and northern literature. Appointed by J.R.R. Tolkien to be his literary executor, he has devoted himself since his father's death in 1973 to the editing and publication of unpublished writings, notably The Silmarillion and Beowulf, and the collections entitled Unfinished Tales and The History of Middle-earth. Since 1975 he has lived in France with his wife Baillie.
