*The Silmarillion* delves into the early history of its fictional universe, Eä, encompassing various lands such as Valinor, Beleriand, Númenor, and, of course, Middle-Earth. The book is divided into five distinct parts, offering deep lore exposition, extensive historical accounts of the First Age, and summaries of the Third Age stories we cherish, notably those from *The Lord of the Rings*.

The Lord of the Rings franchise has expanded 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."
