## Description

This lavish, colour atlas is a complete guide to the weird and wonderful geography of Tolkien's world. Packed with full page maps and illustrations of events in the annals of Middle-earth, it is the perfect companion to the bestselling A Dictionary of Tolkien . This book is unofficial and is not authorised by the Tolkien Estate or HarperCollins Publishers.

Review: Easy and pleasant overview of a beautiful world - I loved the book! Don't say this a lot! Technically speaking I like this book as an artifact: great illustration selection, nice binding, well-formatted text. But the material is also of the highest quality. The author clearly has a very deep understanding of the source material and has put an amazing amount of effort to present it in the cleanest way possible. Every chapter represents an age in the world of Arda and includes a map, general chronology overview and concise texts explaining key topics, e.g. places of interest, characters, beasts, events. I've read most of the original published work in the universe, and it's not easy to get an overview of things from it. Tolkien's characters assume mythology and history of the world, and don't really go into deep and out-of-place explanations. In this book David Day provides a way into gaining this assumed knowledge. Even my 7 year old daughter enjoyed my explanations based on the book... I guess we'll go through Tolkien's books and Jackson's movies real soon.
Review: Absolutely fantastic. - Absolutely fantastic. Much of it is new to me and has me fascinated. Beautifully produced, and the maps and illustration so informative. If I could give more than 5 stars I would - about 100 ????
