This is the seventh book in the History of Middle Earth (HoME) series, and the second in the History of the Lord of the Rings. It picks up where the last left off, in the mines of Moria. It covers the development of the story up through the beginnings of Rohan. I found the previous book, The Return of the Shadow, to be quite entertaining, watching the development of a story that actually led to publication. I thought this second book would continue to be as entertaining, but I found it much drier than I had expected.
