Return of the Shadow, Treason of Isengard, War of the Ring and Sauron Defeated are all part of a series called History of Middle-Earth (HoME). I believe there are 12 books in this series, all expanding even further the tales told in LotR, The Silm. and UT. The four books I mentioned at the top are volumes 6-9 of HoME (I think). They are also part of a sub-series called "History of Lord of the Rings." I know, it's confusing. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
