In the Tale of The Fall of Gondolin are two of the greatest powers in the world. Morgoth, an evil being, rules over a vast military power from his fortress of Angband. Standing against Morgoth is Ulmo, second in might only to Manwë, chief of the Valar.

Caught between this conflict is the city of Gondolin. Turgon King of Gondolin is hated and feared above all his enemies by Morgoth, who seeks to discover the marvellously hidden city, while the gods in Valinor in heated debate largely refuse to intervene in support of Ulmo's desires and designs. 

Into this world comes Tuor, cousin of Túrin, the instrument of Ulmo's designs. Guided unseen by him Tuor sets out from the land of his birth on the fearful journey to Gondolin. . .

Painstakingly restored from Tolkien’s manuscripts and presented for the first time as a standalone work, the epic tale of The Fall of Gondolin will reunite fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings with Elves and Men, Balrogs, Dragons and Orcs and the rich landscape and creatures unique to Tolkien’s Middle-earth.
