I don't think it will be a problem.<P>Count the pages, remembering there will be no Scouring of the Shire. There's less pages to cover then there was from Fellowship minus The Old Forest, Tom Bombadil and The Barrow Downs.<P>As well, the Helm's Deep chapter was mostly expository which is short to write, long to show. If you watch the battle of Helm's Deep it follows the book fairly closely as to the course of the battle, if not the actual participants (ie. Eomer not being there and elves that are).<P>Pelennor is less about the strategies and the course of the battle at large and more about individual conflicts: Eowyn and The Witch King, Pippin and Denethor, Gandalf at the Gates, and thus will be quicker to show as PJ jumps from one scene to the other.<P>Return of the King is the shortest book once the appendices are taken out. Like I said, count the pages.<P>H.C.
