Moooore
Dont you ever want more middle earth books? Do you think that someday the tolkien estate might let modern authors continue the story? Maybe turn it into a much bigger thing? I mean its already big and great, but I still want more...

O, yeah. And I would say a good one.
Actually, my nick Olmer is taken from that trilogy, which continues Tolkien's idea about Gondorians turning to self-destruction: kinstrives, wars with bordering lands, separation with Rohan and so on... Meantime, Olmer, a charismatic hunter from Dale, the heir of Boromir, is gathering together everyone, who were not happy with their lives under Gondor's governing. He reunited orcs, people and dwarves, but, unfortunately, he found the way to acquire the lost ring of the Witch-King and, in spite of knowing that because of this Ring his destiny would be ghastly, he decided to use it for good cause, trying to curb evergrowing appetite of Gondor's Empire. So, here comes troubles for Minas-Tirith. My favorite book is about Uruk-hai and a hobbit, who travelled with orc's squad on a spesial mission. |

VirusScan Alert

FYI, When I went to view the page (from your link) my computer indicated that there was a VirusScan Alert (Exploit-IEPageSpoof). I do not know if there is a legitimate problem or not, but I thought I would pass the warning to others. (My computer is using McAfee VirusSan Enterprise 8.0.0)

Thanks for warning, Anthony. I have Symantec and it did not show any alerts.
This is an official site of the author and he resides in North Carolina. Seems yours detected a spyware, probably from one of many ads on the homepage. nocom, if you will get the books, you don't have to learn language.You can use an online translator.Of course, it won't be a professional storytelling, but you will get the main idea. The book I'm translating has 40 chapters. I did just two, and right now have so much work to do, so till February I even don't dream to come close to the book. |

They are legal, but not on English. Say a big "thank you" to a greedy Tolkien estate. His website is working, just checked, but you woun't find the text over there. I don't think you can find anywhere, exept in some russian stores in NY. |

Thanks to one of our Entmoot's friends I have got a link to the first part of the first book "The Elven Blade".
http://eressea.ru/library/library/np/elf.shtml Unfortunately, the second part of the book is removed for whatever reasons. . Oh, this is 13 chapters and takes time to load. On the second thought I decided to put this two chapters of book for people judgement. See what they will say. After all it's a plain fan-fiction. :-) Uruk-hai, or the journey to there...
