This is a retelling of the story of Tuor and the fall of the legendary Elven city of Gondolin.  It is based on the original 1918 version by J.R.R. Tolkien himself, but updated as much as possible thanks to additional material from both Unfinished Tales (the later Tuor) and The History of Middle-earth series.  I must also admit to interpolating my own narrative additions, where definitive source material was lacking, in an effort to round out the story and make it more entertaining for modern audiences.  Finally, it is a self-contained story.  That is, you don't have to know anything about the world of Middle-earth in order to read and enjoy it.
