Title: The Final Details In The History Of Middle Earth
Product review: This is the 12th and last volume in The History of Middle earth series, Christopher Tolkien's exhaustive effort to publish every word his father wrote about his invented world.None of the volumes in The History of Middle earth are suitable for those who are new to Tolkien, but those who have read and loved The Lord of the Rings will find this, the final volume, especially intriguing. Here we have material which was compiled for the Appendices at the end of The Return of the King. Much of this material expands upon and enriches the published Appendices. Most fascinating of all is the inclusion of Tolkien's planned sequel to The Lord of The Rings, The New Shadow. This was written in the late 1960s and never stretched for more than a few pages, but the fragment we have here is a treasure not to be missed.
