Jak donosi Stopklatka.pl:
Wiosną przyszłego roku w księgarniach pojawi się niepublikowana nigdy wcześniej powieść J.R.R. Tolkiena zatytułowana "The Children of Hurin". 
Prace nad książką ukończył jego syn, Christopher Tolkien. Spędził on ponad 30 lat pracując na dokończeniem dzieła swojego ojca. To epicka opowieść, którą J.R.R. Tolkien zaczął pisać w 1918 roku, ale później porzucił ją by zająć się swoimi wielkimi dziełami.
Wydaniem książki w USA zajmie się Houghton Mifflin, zaś w Wielkiej Brytanii wyda ją HarperCollins.

J.R.R. TOLKIEN`S THE CHILDREN OF HÚRIN TO BE PUBLISHED IN 2007 
Houghton Mifflin has acquired US rights to publish the first complete 
book by J.R.R. Tolkien since the posthumous Silmarillion in 1977 . 
HarperCollins UK acquired the project from The Tolkien Estate in a 
world rights deal. Presented for the first time as a fully 
continuous and standalone story, the epic tale of The Children of 
Húrin will reunite fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings 
with Elves and Men, dragons and Dwarves, and the rich landscape and 
characters unique to Tolkien. 
The Children of Húrin , begun in 1918, was one of three "Great Tales" 
J.R.R. Tolkien worked on throughout his life, though he never 
realized his ambition to see it published. Though familiar to many 
fans from extracts and references within other Tolkien books, it has 
long been assumed that the story would forever remain an "unfinished 
tale". Now reconstructed by Christopher Tolkien, painstakingly 
editing together the complete work from his father`s many drafts, 
this book is the culmination of a tireless thirty-year endeavor by 
him to bring J.R.R. Tolkien`s vast body of unpublished work to a wide 
audience. 
Christopher Tolkien said: "It has seemed to me for a long time that 
there was a good case for presenting my father?s long version of the 
legend of the Children of Húrin as an independent work, between its 
own covers, with a minimum of editorial presence, and above all in 
continuous narrative without gaps or interruptions, if this could be 
done without distortion or invention, despite the unfinished state in 
which he left some parts of it." 
Having drawn the distinctive maps for the original The Lord of the 
Rings more than 50 years ago, Christopher has also created a detailed 
new map for this book. In addition, it will include a jacket and 
color paintings by Alan Lee , illustrator of The Hobbit and The Lord 
of the Rings Centenary Edition and Oscar ® -winning designer of the 
film trilogy. 
The Lord of the Rings was already acclaimed worldwide as the most 
popular book of the 20th Century before the blockbuster films in 
2001-3 broke new ground and inspired millions more to read J.R.R. 
Tolkien`s books -- an additional 50 million copies were sold, leaving 
new fans wanting more. The Children of Húrin will be published by 
HarperCollins UK in April 2007, and on the same day in the United 
States by Houghton Mifflin. 
Victoria Barnsley , CEO and Publisher of HarperCollins Publishers UK 
said: "This epic story of adventure, tragedy, fellowship and heroism 
stands as one of the finest expressions of J.R.R. Tolkien?s skills as 
a storyteller. With a narrative as dramatic and powerful as anything 
contained within The Lord of the Rings , it can now be read and 
enjoyed as Tolkien originally intended, and will doubtless be a 
revelation for millions of fans around the world." 
Janet Silver , Vice President and Publisher of Houghton Mifflin, 
said, "As J.R.R. Tolkien`s original American publisher, dating back 
to The Hobbit , we are extremely proud to be bringing this project 
to Tolkien`s devoted readership in the United States. Christopher 
Tolkien has done a great service in realizing his father`s vision for 
The Children of Hurin."
Swoją drogą ciekawe, czy ktoś to wyda w Polsce. Niestety historię Śródziemia olano w znacznej większosci, ale Dzieci Hurina mają tę przewagę, że są skończoną historią, a nie fragmentem opowieści. Co z tego wniknie, cóż zobaczymy pewnie w przyszłym roku. Swoją drogą ciekawe ile jeszcza takich perełek ma Christopher Tolkien w zandrżu.

  A cena hmmm mam nadzieję, że lepsza niż za SW 
                    
                    
                    
                    
 Co by nie powiedzieć w samym filmie nie widziałem specjalnie Noldarów w akcji (przynajmniej nie na podstawie książki), bo Galadriela nie specjalnie gdziekolwiek walczyła. Więc to raczej problem czasu niż nieścisłości
