Same with Tolkien. His son collected a lot of notes and half-finished writing, and published them as a number of different books, like "The Book of Lost Tales".

It has moments where Tolkien's skill shines through, but it's much harder to read. I can't really recommend them.
The Silmarillion on the other hand, seems to have mostly been finished when Tolkien passed.
