Wait... what?
The idea sounds interesting, what if Eriol only heard the Elvish side of the story, but never that of the Orcs? However, I'm not sure if I want to read this.

To me, toying with the point of view of the basic story is an interesting gimmick, but nothing more. It isn't believable for me for Sauron to be "good" in any way, at least by the time of the Third Age. I wonder how he'd explain the mass decapitations of Gondorian soldiers whose heads were tossed over the walls of Minas Tirith during the war, or his imprisoning of Thráin the Dwarf in Dol Guldur, etc.

As for Thrain, didn't he stay there as an honoured guest on his free will? It's not anyone's fault that he took a strong dose of halucinogen with his drink...
