The first complete book by J.R.R. Tolkien in three decades -- since the publication of The Silmarillion in 1977 -- The Children of Hurin reunites fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings with Elves and Men, dragons and Dwarves, Eagles and Orcs. Presented for the first time as a complete, standalone story, this stirring narrative will appeal to casual fans and expert readers alike, returning them to the rich landscape and characters unique to Tolkien.
The Children of Hurin, begun in 1918, was one of three 'Great Tales' J.R.R. Tolkien worked on throughout his life, though he never realized his ambition to see it published. Though familiar to many fans from extracts and references within other Tolkien books, it has long been assumed that the story would forever remain an unfinished tale. Now reconstructed by Christopher Tolkien, painstakingly editing together the complete work from his father's many drafts, this book is the culmination of a tireless thirty-year endeavor by him to bring J.R.R.Tolkien's vast body of unpublished work to a wide audience.
Having drawn the distinctive maps for the original The Lord of the Rings more than 50 years ago, Christopher has also created a detailed new map for this book. In addition, it will include a jacket and color paintings by Alan Lee, illustrator of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings Centenary Edition and Academy Award-winning designer of the film trilogy.

呵呵~~恭喜恭喜!能看到自己努力的成果变成整齐的铅字展现在万千读者面前,闻到崭新的雪白书页上散发的淡淡墨香,好幸福! 不过,是台湾版的,在大陆不好找到啊……俺们只能忍受X出版社的辣手摧书了……还好有原版书看,汗|||
评分一夜看完,越看越入戏。虽然很多人觉得后来的情节发展太快,文字多流水账的叙述性。不过最后的场面和语言描写都充满了古典气息,好在托老爷爷本来就要用史诗的笔调来描写中土这个幻想大陆,因此颇有古风的史家记录手笔很能符合全书风格。全书翻译质量很高,托尔金的中土世界参...
评分J.R.R. Tolkien 的小说中令人熟知的有“魔戒传奇”(Lord of Rings),拍成了电影。另外几本书是“The Hobbit”,“The Silmarillion”和“The Children Of Hurin”. 我看过这四本书中的三本,只有“The Hobbit”没有看过。我被Tolkien的书迷住了,其实他的书中充满了想象的历史,...

史诗,北欧神话和古希腊悲剧的完美结合,又时不时(比如Brandir之死)让人想起莎士比亚。这个故事写的太棒了。
