中土世界是出现在J.R.R.托尔金小说著作中的一块架空世界中的大陆和世界，这名称来自于古英语中的“middangeard”，字面含义是“中间的土地”，意指“人类居住的陆地”。本书A Middle-earth Traveller《中土世界之旅》运用了文字和生动直观的插图，带领读者踏上一段令人难忘的中土之旅，穿越托尔金的魔幻世界。

A Middle-earth Traveller presents a walking tour of Tolkien’s Middle-earth, visiting not only places central to his stories, but also those just over the hill or beyond the horizon. Events from Tolkien’s books are explored – battles of the different ages that are almost legend by the time of The Lord of the Rings; lost kingdoms and ancient myths, as well as those places only hinted at: kingdoms of the far North and lands beyond the seas. Sketches that have an ‘on-the-spot’ feel to them are interwoven with the artist’s observations gleaned from Tolkien’s books as he paints pictures with his words as well as his pencil. He also recollects his time spent working alongside Peter Jackson on the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit film trilogies. Combining concept work produced for films, existing Middle-earth art and dozens of new paintings and sketches exclusive to this book, A Middle-earth Traveller will take the reader on a unique and unforgettable journey across Tolkien’s magical landscape.
