Tolkien\u2019s Enigmas<\/strong><\/p>\n

Should things that Tolkien left enigmatic and unexplained remain mysterious? Should there even be speculation about these things?<\/p>\n

Many\u2019s the time I have wanted more detail and information about creatures, characters, races, places, and events in Middle-earth. After reading The Lord of the Rings the first time, I remember the sorrow and joy that came with its ending, and the longing for more. If you\u2019ve read The History of Middle-earth, or other similar Tolkien Enterprises publications, then you have seen a bit deeper than others into the mind which spun such fantastic yarn. But perhaps it\u2019s better not to know that Strider was first called Trotter\u2026 or what the fate of Middle-earth is in the end. Some mysteries are better left as such\u2026 What do you think?<\/p>\n
