Silmarillion and Stuff
Annatar

Ah just wanted to say it shouldn't be too difficult to get a copy of the Silmarillion. Well there is no problem getting it here - Ireland, so I'd figure there really shouldn't be any problem elsewhere.
Minas Tirith ~ Minas Anor, I swear I read somewhere the layout of the city was based on Gondolin, hopefully I was not hallucinating .By-the-by, the original Minas Tirith, or its correct name Tol-in-Gaurhoth, was a watch tower on Tol Sirion. I was just looking at the models for Minas Morgul, thankfully they exist as I was a'feared that it may not be shown. However it seems to me that the top of the tower will not rotate, at least the models hint that that is the case. I always loved the idea of a tower forever seaching for intruders, back-n-forth. Hopefully the corpse-light will still illuminate the walls. Until later and the fall of the shadow :) Ash Nazg...
