Sting What to do with these gift cards...

Well, I'm really a sort of laid-back LotR superfreak -- my level of admiration and love for the trilogy is mind-numbing, but my knowledge of the world and history of Middle-Earth is...well, much greater than most people's, to be certain, but not as extensive as I'd like. And I've got about $60 in gift cards for bookstores, so...

Could somebody go through the other Tolkien-made Middle Earth books? Like the Silmarillion, and what, two or three others? I know you can't really summarize the plot of things like that, but if you could give me an idea of what's in them, that would be nice, too. All the stores are in Tolkien-hyperdrive around here, so I may actually be able to find what I'm looking for...

Thanks in advance.

"If I'm to go on, then I must take your sword, by your leave, Mr. Frodo, but I'll put this one to lie by you, as it lay by the old king in the barrow; and you've got your beautiful mithril coat from old Mr. Bilbo. And your star-glass, Mr. Frodo, you did lend it to me and I'll need it, for I'll be always in the dark now. It's too good for me, and the Lady gave it to you, but maybe she'd understand. Do you understand, Mr. Frodo? I've got to go on."
