New Unfinished Tales Forum

Tuor reaches the Hidden City of Gondolin

We have a new forum to discuss Unfinished Tales which is a treasure trove for all Tolkien lovers. It’s here we learn about the Numenoreans - the ancestors of Aragorn – and their great island civilization, the story of Tuor and how he came to Gondolin, who Gandalf really was and why he came to Middle-earth, what the Palantiri are, how Isildur lost the Ring… and so much more.

So come and join in the discussions in the Unfinished Tales forum :D .

We Tolkien geeks have hundreds of favorite passages from all of Tolkien's writings, so let's start with his masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings. I have a sneaky suspicion that this may eventually turn out to be the longest thread at Middle-earth Journeys. :wink:
