  1. The Fall of Arthur by JRR Tolkien

    The Fall of Arthur by JRR Tolkien book cover

    J. R. R. Tolkien's The Fall of Arthur is a magnificent, unexpected treat that showcases his vast literary talent beyond Middle-earth. Written in gorgeous, accessible alliterative verse, this unfinished poem breathes fresh life into the legends of King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, and Mordred. It feels both deeply rooted in classic medieval tradition and uniquely shaped by Tolkien's own imaginative genius. Christopher Tolkien's insightful accompanying essays offer a fascinating peak behind the curtain, exploring how the work connects to Arthurian lore and his father's wider legendarium. It is a captivating, beautifully crafted read that any true fantasy lover will thoroughly enjoy.
