The Silmarillion delves into the early history of its fictional universe, Eä, and its various lands such as Valinor, Beleriand, Númenor, and, of course, Middle-Earth. Structured into five distinct parts, this book offers deep lore exposition, extensive historical accounts of the First Age, and summaries of the Third Age stories we've come to love from The Lord of the Rings.

The Lord of the Rings franchise extends beyond literature into other mediums, including Monolith's game Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, Magic: The Gathering crossover cards, and Prime Video's live-action series Rings of Power. In IGN's review of Rings of Power season 2, they noted, "[season 2] does a great job portraying Sauron’s machinations and his impact on those he manipulates, but too much time is spent on disconnected subplots delivering only mediocre intrigue and thin characters."
