I say that the entire Second Age is underappreciated. We hear all about pre-First Age, when the Vala are nearly the only ones, then about the founding of the Elf civilization, and the coming of Men...then it nearly skips ahead to the Last Alliance and the Fellowship. Even in Unfinished Tales and Lost Tales I and II, it is all the First Age...I say bring on the Second Age!
