Up until now, to get a general idea of the Second Age, readers of Tolkien have had to rely on various, mostly unfinished, accounts. In this History of Numenor and Middle-earth of the Second Age, two Tolkien experts -researcher and translator Martin Simonson and novelist and YouTuber Bernard Torello (also known as Kai47)- join forces to explain the entire Age in a single work. Through an evocative and detailed chronicle spanning more than three thousand years, from the founding of Numenor and the Grey Havens to the defeat of Sauron in the War of the Last Alliance, this History collects and comments on everything Tolkien had to say about Numenor and Middle-earth in this fascinating era.

The book contains more than sixty illustrations (the vast majority in color) with Second Age motifs by internationally renowned artists, including Anke Eissmann and Christopher Radlund. In addition, there are six detailed color maps; a large number of informative tables on the most varied curiosities of the Age; complete chronologies and an original dictionary containing all the terms relating to the Numenorean culture.
