Illustrated by Alan Lee

Published by Harper Collins. 1st. 2018

Very good condition in a nearly fine dustwrapper. Edited by Christopher Tolkien. A stand-alone, book-length version, "The Fall of Gondolin" is one of the stories which formed the basis for a section in his posthumously-published work, The Silmarillion, with a version later appearing in The Book of Lost Tales. Black boards, gilt title to spine. 302 pages, fold-out map at rear.

Minimal bumping to spine and a few very light and small marks to covers. Heavy foxing to textblock affecting page margins and prelims.
