The War of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien, Christopher Tolkien
Did not finish book. Stopped at 54%.
I enjoyed the first two books in this series and learning about LOTR's beginnings.
However, this one is so much more about timeline intricacies and locations, and less about the development of the narrative and characters, which was what really interested me in the first two books. I also don't know the latter half of the story as well as the first half, so I could hardly ever tell the difference between what was actually included in the published works and what wasn't.
No judgement on the book itself, it’s just not for me.
