Geschichten aus dem gefährlichen Königreich

Knowing that these stories aren't as famous as his main works makes me curious about what motivated him to bring them together in one book.

The lighter, more playful elements stood out, and I'd love to hear if others felt these stories offered a different side of Tolkien's imagination.

They seem to add layers to the mythology and history, but I'm curious how readers see their role in the broader Tolkien universe.
